Hi!

When I build my app for android it’s 18 MB, but when I build for iOS it’s only 13.

Why is there such a big difference?

There are more compiled in libraries with Android.  For instance, Facebook is a plugin on iOS where it’s not on Android.  On iOS, SQLite is provided by the OS, on  Android we have to include it in the build, etc.
