I am developing an app with many images. For illustration, suppose they are altogether >150MB but <1GB. Then, when uploading the built .aab file to Google Play, I get the following warning:
Your App Bundle contains the following configurations where the initial install would exceed the maximum size of 150 MB…
So, the problem is obvious. I try to search for solution, and I have formulated the following ideas.
Prepare a server and make the asset as downloadable content. In view of the cost and effect, it is the very very last thing I want to think about.
In my investigation, I didn’t see a direct approach to this. I can suggest you take further assistance from our recommended consultants: Consultants — Expo as it is not an Expo related issue.
Thank you very much for your reply as well as your time of investigation.
I understand why right now there is no simple solution. I just really hope that one day Expo can handle this issue for us seamlessly. Indeed, I think that it prevents us from publishing any rich offline app (e.g. indie games) through the Expo ecosystem. In that case, it may be a strong reason to consider switching to other cross-platform engines which give us a hand.
