Hello,

it seems that the IPA size increases after upload to the AppStore: i have an 8Mo IPA (where near 80% is Air runtime), when it's uploaded to the AppStore i get a 21Mo file to download.

It seems that happens too with other non-Apple packager such as unity3D.

any idea of how to reduce/fix this ?

Thanks for the report, I've forwarded along to our iOS team to see if they had any suggestions.

Hello Chris,

Did you get any suggestions from iOS team?

Actually ours ipa file size is of 14 MB but it gets increased to 27 MB at iTunes Connect. It will be very helpful if you can put up some light because we wanted to allow user to download over cellular network too...

Best Wishes,

Sanniv.

Hi Sanniv,

Please see the following thread regarding this:

Long story short, this isn't an AIR issue per say.  It also occurs with native obj-c apps and has to do with how Apple repackages the ipa.

Thanks,

Chris
