App thinning for video resources on iOS

Question

I'm developing an universal iOS app and it has lot of video resources. In order to reduce the size of the app I would like to apply app thinning. I know that it's possible to do it with image resources but I haven't found any documentation about how to it with video resources. In other words, I would like to have video in different resolutions for iPhone and iPad devices.

Is it possible to do it with video resources?

Thanks a lot

Have you thought of the idea of streaming the video through API? — Saheb Roy, Jun 05 '17 at 10:33

I think there is no way currently to decrease size of the video assets drastically. You can look into On Demand Resources if it fits the bill.
