Question

I just read this question about packaging for Android:

Android – Application (apk) Maximum size

Where it mentions that apk files have a maximum size for the market place:

When using the Qt for Android:

http://sourceforge.net/p/necessitas/home/necessitas/

How much space does that take up?

Answer 1

You don’t have to include the Qt libraries in your application so the space of the app depends only on the application itself.

The guy behind necessitas has also created ministro which fetches the Qt libraries required by your application.

Ministro is a system wide Qt shared libraries installer/provider
service. It acts as a bridge between your apps and Qt libraries.

Ministro service is release under GPL v3+ license.

Have a look at this [QuickStart video] which demonstrates the process of writing/installing a Qt Application in Android

EDIT

Of course if you want you can select to use deploy local qt libs with your application instead of the device libs. In this case the extra space required depends on the Qt modules you use.
