May I add a follow-up question? Why is their Android app 'only' 70MB?
Are there fundamental differences between Android apks and iOS application bundles that cause these size differences? It seems to be a pattern that iOS apps are just bigger:
- Facebook on Android is 70MB while on iOS it is 491MB
- Twitter on Android is 74MB while on iOS it is 178MB.
- Spotify on Android is 104MB while on iOS it is 164MB.
- Dropbox on Android is 112MB while on iOS it is 228MB.
