Just finished my first BT 2.0V app but it seems to not be optimized (as in it is very jerky, and not smooth at all). Is there something I can do to optimize it? What might be causing this? Thanks in Advance! Title Comments Hey all. Just finished my first BT 2.0V app but it seems to not be optimized (as in it is very jerky, and not smooth at all).

It just takes a moment to respond, and when it does it feels like it is running slow, as if there isn't enough processing power or something... Comments The device itself.

What type of screens have you made that are giving issues? if you are calling images or documents from an online server perhaps that is the issue or are all of your files embedded in the application itself? try to give a little bit more information!

MM2000 Aspiring developer Posts: 207 Reg: Sep 06, 2011 Los Angeles 2,820	11/08/12 12:51 PM (13 years ago) I do have images as they are being used as 'icons' for each option in the app. Could the image files be too large (I would have to go back and look to see how big they are). What size should these images be (dpi)?

They are jpg's embeded in the app. I think I need to change them to png's and make sure they are 72 dpi... Comments Thanks for the help!
