<p dir="auto">I have followed the <a href="https://flutter.io/get-started/codelab/" rel="nofollow">instruction</a> to make flutter app. (stop at list of word pairings tutorial). Next I try building release version of iOS following <a href="https://flutter.io/ios-release/#create-a-build-archive" rel="nofollow">instruction</a>, archives and export from Xcode.</p>
<p dir="auto">The ipa file is 68.9MB, while release version of apk file is 5.5MB. Is this normal?<br>
If the size in not normal, how could I find and fix the issue in iOS?<br>
Appreciate for any helps.</p>
<p dir="auto">With current beta <code class="notranslate">0.8.2</code> and latest <code class="notranslate">dev</code>, <code class="notranslate">flutter build ios --release</code> produces app which is 5 times the size of the app built with <code class="notranslate">0.7.2</code>.</p>
<p dir="auto">with <code class="notranslate">0.7.2</code> the size was around <code class="notranslate">22mb</code><br>
with <code class="notranslate">0.8.2</code> the size is around <code class="notranslate">100mb</code></p>
<p dir="auto">I've tested with basic flutter app by creating new flutter app and building it. Even basic app size is around <code class="notranslate">61mb</code></p>
<h2 dir="auto">Steps to Reproduce</h2>
<ol dir="auto">
<li>Create new flutter app.</li>
<li>Run <code class="notranslate">flutter build ios --release</code></li>
<li>Check the size of the app</li>
</ol>
