What I found when I look into your APK
summary
Scans of real APKs reveal concrete failure modes and fixes: oversized 32‑bit PNGs duplicated across densities produce a 100 MB APK from duplicated PNGs, Android Studio image conversion cuts files to 20% or 12% of original by switching to HEIF/AVIF or vectors, bundling common fonts wastes space so use downloadable fonts to avoid duplicate copies, bundled webview and native .so files break on modern 64‑bit devices and outdated SDKs, and stale manifest permissions invite crashes and review delays.
