Description

Building “Hello World” in an empty directory:

buildozer init
buildozer android debug

Results in an apk that is 28MB

p4a 2020.4.29 (NDK 19c, SDK 29, armeapi-v7a ) also gives 28MB p4a 2020.4.29 (NDK 19c, SDK 29, arm64-v8a ) gives 21MB

Not long ago this was 12MB

Is 28MB the new normal?

Why didn’t I think of trying develop?! 😉 Minimal app, I get a nice, 13MB or so. Thank you.

I haven’t tried, give it a go on develop and you tell me 😄 The CI build artifact of last develop build is between 18M and 20M, even though the app is not really minimal
