Hi X Android folks! If you're on version 12.20+, you're now running the latest iteration of our new Android app. For context: for the last 8 months we were shipping two apps in a single binary, and that introduced some perf overhead. But shipping two apps in one was needed to make the switch to the new experience as smooth as possible for everyone. With 12.20+ that overhead is gone. We ship a single app, built entirely on the new shiny kotlin + compose codebase. This resulted in: • 33% smaller app binary size • 69% faster app startup • Got rid of 3.15M lines of code from the OG app What's next: we hear you on performance. It's our main focus right now - scroll smoothness, battery, networking and memory - and there's more coming. Thanks for the patience and the feedback along the way - keep it coming!
