My assumption is that layouts/graphics are downloaded to the device, but application logic is run remotely. Can't find any confirmation though.

- kinlan 10y agoThe APK is downloaded and run on device.
- dogma1138 10y agoThat doesn't mean much half of the applications you install and run these days are just wrappers for web components where quite often the logic outside of the initialization is not in the app it self.

- de_dave 10y agoHow does that work if the APK is huge (or bigger than a couple of megs at least)? That doesn't seem very "instant" to me... Is the APK re-arranged perhaps so it can, in effect, "progressively" download the app as required?
- Fargren 10y agoYes, this is the idea.
