    I'm on Unity 5.0.3 (Pro) and I'm trying to strip down the size of my app. I am currently building using IL2CPP backend.

    I tried all 3 stripping levels but it just results to the same .ipa file size. Does stripping require an iOS Pro license? Or is this just a bug?

    I can't seem to find the link where it shows the difference between iOS and iOS Pro anymore.

    Stripping does not require an iOS Pro license. Note that the IL2CPP scripting backend always does stripping, even when the "Stripping Level" has a value of "Disabled" (we've improved the GUI exposure of this option a bit more in 5.2). So changing the stripping level really won't have much of an impact on the final size, as all of the stripping levels are already doing something.
