I’ve been developing native apps for Tizen for a while now, and I’d like to share some tips and best practices for optimizing app performance, especially on wearables and TVs where resources are more limited.

Efficient memory management – Make sure to free up unused resources and minimize memory allocations inside frequently called functions. Using Tizen’s native configuration analysis tools can help detect memory leaks early.

Minimize UI redraws – Avoid unnecessary redraws in the EFL (Enlightenment Foundation Library). Only updating the parts of the UI that actually change can significantly reduce CPU usage.

Use asynchronous operations – For network requests, file I/O, or heavy calculations, favor asynchronous APIs to keep the UI responsive.

Rendering Optimization – On wearables, keeping FPS stable is important. Consider using batch drawing and minimizing overdrawing when using geometry dash graphics.

Leverage Hardware Acceleration – If possible, use OpenGL ES for graphics-intensive operations to reduce CPU workload.

I would love to hear from the community:

How do you approach performance optimization in native Tizen apps?

Do you have any tips for balancing battery consumption and performance on Tizen watches?

Sharing experiences and best practices can really help new developers avoid common mistakes.

I would love to hear from you!
