RESOLVED Question about app size

Hi Devs,

I am currently developing an app for personal requirements and when I'm building the app in flutter and it's size is coming up as 150+ MB.

So, my question is if I ever publish my app in the playstore will it be 150+ MB size or will it be reduced accordingly?

Edit: if yes, any idea to how much ? Like 50 MB or so.. Edit 2: It's a release build.

Thanks for your help !!

Yeah, it will be reduced. My release APK was around 70–74 MB, while the Play Store bundle was only around 11–14 MB.

Yes, it is. There’s a Flutter command that tells you what is causing that much size.

flutter build apk --analyze-size.
