I cannot decrease the size of the APK file

I need to generate my app’s APK in Xamarin fForms, but when I mark the "SDK Assenblies" binding option to decrease the APK, I take the "Unexpected Linkassemblies Task Failure" error. By unchecking this option I can generate normally, but it gets 40 Mb.

Does anyone know the reason for this message or if that’s not what will cause my APK size to decrease?

xamarin-forms apk

I had that problem. I decided to create a new project and "copy" its configuration and then change to "SDK Assemblies Only".

  • This is almost 1 day of work, I’ve done what you said for other similar reasons, Xamarin gives bug too... until discouraged. If nothing else goes right I’ll do it again.

  • Weird, man. Here Xamarin runs very quiet. But I don’t work with Forms, only with Android.

  • Just noting, that after you upload to Google Play, the very Google decreases the size of the apk. She makes this Assemblies Only.

  • Good to know, Diego, I’m gonna try to climb straight up to the Play Store to see. Detail, I think Zica is in my VS... I created a new project like you said, only before wasting time assembling my entire solution I already tried to generate APK right away. and I made the same mistake without adding any references at all. Unexpected "Linkassemblies" task failure Leaving the binding to "None", the application compiles. Complicated saw...
