Wondering about using gzipped resources for my iOS app. The idea is to unzip the resources on first launch to my app’s documents directory. I’m hoping this would make downloading our app from the App Store a much smoother/faster experience on-the-go.
Has anyone attempted something like this? If yes, what are the pros/cons? Thanks!
.ipa, which you use for submitting to App Store, is already a.ziparchive (you can check this by changing the extension), so there really is no point in doing something like this.It would make sense only for a better compression than
.zip.
