size

I used to do it but I haven't done it in a while and i've added to my game. Don't remember where on Xcode I can check the approximate app store size of my app.

I plugged in the iPhone into my mac. I clicked on Windows, Devices expecting it to be there but it wasn't. I don't remember.

Where on Xcode can I check the approximate app store size of my app?

To find out what's the size of the file that user will download from the App Store, you need to do the following.

  1. Archive your app
  2. Export your archive for testing outside the store. enter image description here enter image description here

  3. Select “Export for specific devices” and choose “All compatible device variants” from the pop-up menu. enter image description here

  4. Select "Rebuild from bitcode." EDIT: this step doesn't exist since as late as Xcode 9.4.1.

  5. In the output folder, you will find App Thinning Size Report.txt, which breaks down the compressed and uncompressed file sizes, plus the size of any On Demand Resources, for each device type.

For more information take a look at apple docs.
