We got tagged to analyze this app on Thre*ds so we're posting it here too 🤭

🧵 Let's take a look at why the @intesasanpaolo iOS app is 699 MB 😳

A quick breakdown 👇

448 MB (64%) dynamic frameworks 🫠
72 MB (10%) main app target
74 MB (11%) of assets

We first found some low-hanging fruit improvements to optimize install size, including

102 MB (15%) from stripping binary symbols
27 MB (4%) from optimizing images
10 MB (1.5%) from removing duplicates

That's 139 MB (20%) of size that could be easily reduced right there 🧠

Next, let's talk about how 64% of the app is dynamic frameworks, 230 of them to be exact 🫣

We've talked about this before in previous app breakdowns, but dylibs let you share code between targets, however, they're larger than static frameworks. It's likely that Intesa doesn't need ALL of those to be dynamically linked

Linking back to another popular app breakdown for @santanderuk that had the same issue

Ok last one just for fun

As we were digging through the app for this tweet, we found an mp3 file titled "rutto.mp3" and thought it sounded really strange.

Rutto means burp in Italian...we'll leave you with that 🫳🎤
