I usually import drawables as png images in three sizes (1x 2x 3x), and all of the sudden I got curious if there’s any better method🤔
Maybe I’m using a very old & inefficient way that takes app capacity so.. any tips on optimizing app size w.r.t. image resource?

using svg(scalable vector graphics) can be optimal.

isn’t svg file larger than png?

@JungIn Choi depends on your image. If it's a picture, yeah. If it's something geometric like a logo, SVG is way better than PNG

Thanks Minhaj and CLOVIS, both u guys’ explanation really helped. So good to use SVG on geometric images!
