For a universal app to support iphones and ipads, there are several resolutions, retina or non-retina screen, portrait and landscape orientation, so that there would be many *.png, this will hugely increase the final size of app bundle size.
Is there any good advice for reduce image sizes?

Also, you can use a .jpg as a splash.
Just remember to change the UILaunchImageFile = "splash.jpg"
setting in the info.plist file.
I'm using it in my latest app. A 700K png is only a 180k jpg.

You can try Imageoptim, which can optimize also png and jpeg images.

The best way is to use pngcrush
. You can use it to try all possible encoding methods and get the smallest files possible.
