I just installed B4A late last night (just trial for now) and spent some time cleaning some Android platforms I won't need. Cleaned up 8Gb from a full disk. B4A itself didn't take much space so I was wondering how much the B4i is going to take including all what's necessary to start coding. As I understand online builder should take care of the task of compiling and ios device is there to test so SDK isn't necessary like it is for android. I need to start coding before I will have time to take care of the disk cleanup or swap so the question is can I squeeze in B4i. Java is already there so I'am expecting about 1 Gb to be enough for now. Many thanks for any comets :)

you can also remove the system image from the API's you have installed, that's a virtual machine image that nobody uses since it's way too slow
and it's 500+Mb for each API you have installed.

B4i uses 11Mb under program files and around 40K under your user profiles.

if you use the remote builder you don't need to install any sdk (you need a mac for it).

you just need a developers license (€99/year) and an IOS device (iPhone4 or better or iPad)
