Tips for Optimizing Qt Performance on Cross-Platform Apps

I’m currently working on a cross-platform app using Qt 6 that runs on both Windows and Android. Most of the features work well, but I’ve noticed that the UI performance on Android feels a bit sluggish—especially when using QML with animations.
So far, I’ve tried a few optimizations:
- Using
Loaderto delay initialization of non-critical components - Reducing the number of constantly-updating
Bindings - Optimizing image assets and using a texture atlas
These helped to some extent, but I’m wondering if others in the community have more experience or additional techniques to improve UI responsiveness on mobile devices?
I also came across a few external examples on sites like HEYAPKS, which provided some practical QML usage patterns—not as in-depth as the discussions here, but still useful in certain contexts.

Hi @meme001
Your proactive steps for UI performance on Android devices should be
- Utilizing Loader for deferred component initialization
- Minimizing constantly-updating bindings
- Optimizing image assets
To further enhance UI responsiveness on Android, Consider this
- Leverage (QtQuick.Controls 2)
- Optimize Animations
- Profile with Qt Tools
- Reduce Overdraw
- Resource Management
- Asynchronous Operations
Remember, performance optimization is an iterative process. Regular profiling & testing across different devices can provide insights into areas needing improvement.
