How much does an IOS Library project adds in size to app

Question

I have a framework I finished writing (with bit code enabled). I want to know how much is my framework is adding to an app after they upload the app to the store. I understood that i need to archive the app to ad hoc and choose a variant (a device) then recompile with out my framework and see what is the difference. When i compile the demo app with bitcode. After selecting ad hoc it won't le me select variant xcode returns 14 domain error.When i remove bit code i can see the variants. Is this ok ?

You could simply create a Simple View Application and archive then export it once with your framework and once without. Then compare the two IPA sizes.

Update

To have the size for all architectures, export your iPA with the Export one app for all compatible devices option.

If you need to have the size for a special architecture use the Export for specific devices option.

@NoamSegev It depends on how you export your iPA. I've updated the answer with additional details. – Yassir Mar 09 '17 at 13:31
