Absurd APK size after build
I'm on Unity 2018.1.8f1, trying for a first android build. My issue is an APK file hits 20+mb for an install around 90mbs, but the total resources I'm dealing with (that I can observe) is around 6mbs for this simple timer app. I've visited many of the pages on the topic, but the usual reduction of file sizes, change of stripping level, etc. don't really address this sort of bloat. Here is a snippet of the end of the log, hopefully someone can make heads or tails of this because I'm very stuck (let me know if you need more of it):

I built a blank project (empty) and it ends with a 20.4mb AP$$anonymous$$ for 79mb install. Unless this is the normal file sizes of Unity projects and I just didn't know, the problem resides with the build setup. I browsed a setup video on Youtube and it appears the default settings are fine, but this doesn't look to be an issue with my original project at all. As I observe other Apps on my phone can be under 5mbs, I'm interested in how to achieve this, if possible, with Unity.
Alright, I did manage to discover a Forum discussion on the topic here: [link text][1]https://forum.unity.com/threads/apk-size-of-empty-scene-is-20mb-after-installation-on-phone-its-62mb.453297/
I was able to cut my program down to 48mbs after unpacking by turning off x86, but still, this is a timer program, that's still an absurd size for what this is. $$anonymous$$y point of reference is observing clearly more complex programs at smaller size. This app will be free, but if I were to compete with the other timers on the market place, the couple I have tried were south of 10mbs. Is there anything I can do besides rolling back to Unity 4.7 as the last post in my link suggests to reduce install size?
