"Hello World" app now consumes 1MB...

…rather than the 300kB you mention on one of your web sites!

(I am using the Corona trial version)

Or is there a trick to reduce the app size?

Kind regards,

Hmm, that’s strange. A couple things could be causing that. If you have anything in the folder when you go to build the app, even if its not called in the application, it will be copied into the app. So if you have an icon, or a copy of photoshop in there, it will get copied. Its also possible your block size is different on your hard drive.

Here’s how big it is on mine:

Oops!

Indeed - that was my fault! Sorry!

After moving main.lua plus icon into a separate folder, the build process produced an app with a size of 324kB.

For a comfortable environment (like Corona) that’s really ok - usually, one has to trade comfort for some other resources (such as memory consumption) Glad to see that this is not the case with Corona!
