Google play store app/phone compatibility

Is there any way to tell on the Google play store if an App will be compatible with a certain model of phone without actually having the phone tied to your account?

My dad is looking to buy a new phone, and one of the main things he uses it for is golf GPS (Golflogix app). I wouldn't have even thought that compatibility would be an issue, but I bought him a new tablet at Christmas (acer a810) and it was not compatible with the app. I checked the Golflogix website but their compatible phone listing looks like its out of date, I have a different phone that is not on their website but have installed it without a problem.

The phone he is looking at is an LG Optimus F6. He doesn't want to buy the phone if the app wont work for it, but i cant figure out how to tell if the app will work without having the phone in hand.
 
What he says.

Also, probably the developer developed the app specifically for phones and was just making sure people couldn't install it on tablets (because of UI issues, etc).
