Hey @groverfubpk 👋 For a modern smart phone with 1000’s of MB of storage, I don’t think that 36 MB is particularly big. Have you had any feedback from your users to indicate that 36 MB is an issue for them? ---

I would expect only one button not even a single MB ---

> [@zbk0612eip8w](#): > > only one button Ah, but the thing is, it’s not “just” a single button. There are lots of files and SDKs required to create an android app that is compatible with the latest API level. A more interesting comparison would be to look at how little extra storage is needed to go from a useless app (i.e one button) and an app with dozens of screens, hundreds of components and thousands of blocks. You might notice only a few MB of an increase from the minimum system requirements. ---
