Does Google Play Services make my app's APK bigger?

When I use the Google Play Services library in an Android project, does it get compiled with the APK and makes this bigger?

Yes it will make your APK bigger. However you will have to try if it's really that much that it matters to you. Google says:

The client library has a light footprint if you use ProGuard as part of your build process, so it won't have an adverse impact on your app's file size.
