Description
I’ve read several posts here complaining of the SDKs absolutely massive size, however even in those reports the size of the APK “only” doubled or tripled.
Our release APK has gone from 50mb to over 250mb (with ProGuard enabled) after adding Zoom. This is utterly absurd. I’ve cleaned out the project and manually deleted the build folder in the mobilertc
module (it doesn’t appear to get deleted during a normal Gradle clean task).
Upon rebuilding the project, the mobilertc
folder is usually somewhere between ~320mb and ~430mb. It is not clear to me why it seems to vary in size. Navigating to the mobilertc/build
directory shows the directory to be empty, but ls -a
shows a hidden .transforms
directory. This directory contains several unknown file types and multiple .bin
binaries.
Questions:
- What is the
mobilertc/build/.transforms
directory? - Why is the
mobilertc/build/.transforms
directory so large? - How can we reduce the size of our APK to ensure our release APK does not exceed the size limit enforced by the Play Store?
Which version?
SDK version v5.0.24433.0616
