Hi,

For obvious multi-tasking/battery saving reasons, Memory that can be allowed to a Windows Phone application is limited. If you reach this limit, you will get an OutOfMemoryException. One way to get a little more memory (for example +30 MB for a low range Windows Phone in my tests) is to add what this simple plugin adds to the Manifest. This is detailed in this page : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj681682(v=vs.105).aspx The first tool to use should always be the profiler to optimise the application but in some extreme cases this may help.
