App size too big IOS
Hello,
I am currently developing an application ( an arcade game ) with Unity and I want to release it on iOS and Android. It is almost finished , but I have a problem : the game on Android weighs 48 MB against 487 MB on IOS. It is very high and it may deter many users to downloading my application.
Do you know where is the problem ? How to solve it ?
Thank you in advance !

Do you know where is the problem ?
Yes, the problem is that you cannot pinpoint what is causing your player to be so big.
How to solve it ?
Figure out what content is responsible for such a big ipa. One way to start would be looking at the build log and start compressing or cutting content out.

The size of my application is normal in Unity (60 Mo) but when I put it on my IOS device , I go to settings , it is written that it weights 487 MB. Do you know why ?
I am confused. Is your download size 60 $$anonymous$$B or 487 $$anonymous$$B?
In Unity my app is 60$$anonymous$$B but on my device it is 487 $$anonymous$$B
Is your download size 60 $$anonymous$$B or 487 $$anonymous$$B, or something else?
On IOS : the download size is around 487 $$anonymous$$B ;)
So what does the editor log say straight after a build? Can you include the summary?
Or does it say "Complete size 60.0 mb 100.0%"?
After the build, the editor log says : "Complete size 60 $$anonymous$$B 100.0%" but on IOS the app weights 487 $$anonymous$$B

Hi , I have the same problem.
I tried use empty scene build a xcode project (16MB), and build on the device. I'll see the application has more than 240MB.

I'm having same issue. @mechwarr @Robin1002 did you ever solve issue? When I build a empty scene unity project for iOS I get a xcode project that is around 40mb. After I archive build in Xcode my build is at 403mb?
I've been searching online and not finding anything that solves issue.
I'm running Unity 5.4.0b14 personal
$$anonymous$$e too! It's a nightmare. $$anonymous$$y ad hoc builds are fine - 36$$anonymous$$B - but my app store download is SIX HUNDRED $$anonymous$$EG.
