Did AppStore increased the download size to unreasonable stage?

    Hi,

    Recently I submitted my game to AppStore and got to be approved by Apple for updates. Below are the statistics that I found before submission, after submission, email alert, itunes store & iPad device AppStore:

    Before Submission: 82MB
    After Submission : 82MB
    Email Alert : 82MB -> 114MB( this is still reasonable but I feel like 40% increase is huge).
    iTunes Store Size: 114 MB
    Device App Store Size : 267MB(this is crazy!!!)

    I'm using Unity3d 5.2.3f1 and XCode 7.1 and this never happens to me before... I feel like worry coz it already exceed the download size that I'm expected to have(100MB and below) and become crazy high! Anyone experience this before and anyone of you have any solutions?

    Thank you.

    I found that the Device App Store Size is showing the install size of my game in my device. Did apple change any policy on showing install size in App Store?

    I am facing the same issue. The app ipa size before submission was 42mb. But checking the app store on device, its showing a whooping 428MB. I just can't figure out? On web browser itunes link, its showing 71MB.
