Aloha JeeJeeStudio (did not a have a name 😊), David, Bob:

OK! That one that Andre is working on. The in-application, the folder “assets” 
is where the multi-megabytes are coming from

Assets/
audio
books
img
info
narratives
video

It’s the “img/” that is the problem. 75MB!

We are putting “assets” on the server to download. That will put the SivaSiva 
App 60MB.

That is a Plus for the size SivaSiva. We will get “big” time, changes to img.

Don't make really big apps? :-) 

I'd start by going through all your graphics and using the lowest resolution 
that you can get away with. If you linked your graphics to an actual file on 
the disk this becomes really easy. If not you would have to re-import all your 
low res graphics and optionally script them. 

Also, the less cards and stacks, the better. I tend to put a LOT of 
functionality on my cards, then use tabs to show/hide groups accordingly.

There is a full list of working LiveCode/macOS/Xcode combinations here:

Note: Whilst we endeavour to release updated versions of LiveCode
supporting the latest Xcode/iOS SDKs as quickly as possible; we strongly
recommend disabling automatic update of Xcode or downloading the specific
version of Xcode required directly from the Apple developer portal and
installing it separately.

Important: From the start of April 2021, Apple is only accepting apps built
using iOS14.x SDKs. This means that, if you wish to submit apps to the
AppStore you will have to be running at least macOS 10.15 in order to be
able to install the necessary version of Xcode.
