I notice that other puzzle apps from the google play store can go up to as many as 400 separate movable puzzle pieces
I have been attempting to learn how to at least take an image that will represent my puzzle, Crop certain sections and mask the image space that is left with a puzzle piece design in order to create my individual puzzle pieces
I want to max out with 20 pieces for my app but so far according to my android studio memory log once bitmap factory is done creating one puzzle piece I’m using up around 18mb of memory, after 20 pieces are created along with all the other functions of the app I’m using up 400+mb of memory which I must use “largeHeap=true” to keep from running out of memory, but I’m so close to exceeding those higher limits that the app is super sluggish and enough animated activity will inevitably crash the app
I would love to know what those other play store puzzle apps are doing that I’m not
any input is greatly appreciated
FYI I’m using PNG24 for my images and the dimension on my test image is 556x720
Here is an example if I were to just create one animated-able puzzle piece image
@Override

This is what it looks like when I load 5 images
