Trust Wallet cuts 200 MB from its app by deleting nine years of code

The Binance-acquired self-custody wallet says more code cuts are coming as it works through years of technical debt Trust Wallet just got lighter. The self-custody app says it has removed nine years of accumulated code, shrinking the app by 200 MB. The company isn’t done, either. More code cuts are planned, which suggests this is the opening act of a longer cleanup, not a one-off spring clean. The October 19, 2026 announcement covered legacy code, outdated technology stacks and unnecessary dependencies. Those three categories add up to roughly 200 MB of reclaimed space. Trust Wallet describes the work as “behind-the-scenes” refactoring. Refactoring means restructuring existing code without changing what the app does for the user. The wallet should behave the same. It just carries less baggage under the hood.
