This issue is related to the xamarin Linker. Look at the csproj, you could find the following property:

<AndroidLinkMode>SdkOnly</AndroidLinkMode>

With this setup we end with a 11mb APK, with is limit reasonnable. To have a better "compression" we want to the value Full , but all the linking should be explicitly define in the LinkerPleaseInclude class.
