Hello!
Today I decided try to find answer on question: "Why my simple app with 10k lines of source code and two low weight dependency, take around 50 mb in AppStore?".
But let's look how many take blank Xamarin Forms App in AppStore (Estimated App Store Size) - it's take around 30 mb (27.25mb).
It's normal or not?! 27.25mb..! It's so much!
