Base application size

Getting Started Newbie Questions

Hi.

I have just built the HelloPhysics demo app for iOS and Android. The iOS HelloPhysics.app is 3.1MB, while the Android HelloPhysics.apk is 7MB.

Is this standard for a basic app? Is it quite normal for the cordova/lua/physics runtimes to consume that much space on android? What are your guys experiences, what is the average size for a small app?

Thanks a lot!!

Yes, the libraries on Android are larger than on iOS.  More has to be included with the app with Android where on iOS more is built into the OS.
