How to check if the device is android or iOS in Unity 3D?

There are some cases where RuntimePlatform is needed to be checked at runtime.We have several ways to check at compilation time and run time whether a device is iPhone or Android.

The best way is to use the preprocessor.

Solution 1:

#if UNITY_IOS
iPhone related codes
#endif

#if UNITY_ANDROID
 Android code here
#endif

Solution 2:

if (Application.platform == RuntimePlatform.Android
print ("Android related functions");
else if(Application.platform == RuntimePlatform.IPhonePlayer)
print("iPhone related functions only");
