Size of apk with and without drawing procedure

The apk is a zip file so if you open the two different apps you can see what is bigger/extra in the larger one.

Thank you very much. Unwittingly I had placed all of my backup zip files in the "FILES" folder so when I compiled, it was picking them up. I had no idea they would be part of the apk. After removing those files, the compiled apk is much smaller. This forum is outstanding.

Incidentally, for the version the user gets, should it be compiled with the debug information included? Would that be of any benefit to the user in reporting bugs?
I think I mentioned this before but the email notification is working again. I did not have to submit a new email address.

It will make the apk larger but will show the user the line number and source code as well as the Sub if an uncaught exception occurs in your app. It will also expose the source code of your app to anyone who can poke around inside the bytecode but that may not bother you.

Thank you again. I am very grateful for the prompt replies you and others provide. I will include the debug information. It will help me to know where the problem lies.

Note that you can clean the Files folder by choosing Tools - Clean unused files. It is also worth cleaning the project with Tools - Clean project.
