I thought you were taking about RAM memory, not storage memory. Also, the Facebook app (on my Android device at least) is 40.36MB... But accounting for assets

I thought you were taking about RAM memory, not storage memory.
Also, the Facebook app (on my Android device at least) is 40.36MB...
But accounting for assets, multi-language translations, functionality, and the fact that it contains a bunch of multi-platform code (multi platform meaning Android with Google services, android with Amazon's stuff, Android with none of that, etc... which means it cant depend on a lot of "system" libraries that might not be there), and more then 40mb isn't even that bad. That being said the Facebook app is a bit of an outlier, with most apps being in the 5MB range.
- kuschku 11y agoI am working on an open source project, we have a simple IRC client for android (it uses a server for the translation between IRC and our protocol, the server also allows the app to show messages from times when the device was off). This app already has over 8MB storage space and 34MB RAM. And the app has only 5 images overall in it, uses no Google services, and has only about 25k LOC.
