For iOS, when you create a new mobile project in Titanium Studio and run it on device, the ipa file it generates is well over 4MB.

1. Create new mobile project 2. Compile it to device 3. Check the size of the app.

App bigger than 4MB, even if it's an almost empty app.

Ti only adding the needed functionality, according to the namespaces used in the app.

To test: Do a distribution build and a device build, with the "build only" flag. Check the project/build/android/bin/assets/app.json Open the file and verify that the list only contains the modules you expect to see. For almost all apps, the following are included, so try to add some functionality to change the list. network analytics android app ui locale Recommendation is to add media to the app so you get "media" added to app.json Verify the trace log for the build under "adding library" and you should only see the libraries you see in the app.json
