Cache clean up

Hi,

 

As you could imagine, space on IPhones is the hell to manage, because we are limited to internal storage quantity and can't add more (no sd slot) like on Android.

 

Recently I couldn't install updates for some apps, because with my 16 gigs on my iPhone 6, it couldn't handle this.

 

So I thought "oh I have to transfer some pictures and videos" but it wasn't the problem there. Emby was 387 Megs! I think that you use some cash to be able to serve app quickly, and it's great : it uses less bandwith... but maybe you could think about a system to clean up the cash for elements less used for instance.

 

So I deleted the app and reinstalled, now it weights under 30 megs... thx!

Yes you can just uninstall reinstall, or use the built in iOS functions to clear app data.

Coming again. On iPhone we don't have a lot of space, and we can't use external storage. The app, when freshly installed is around 30 megs, and after several days of use is around 200 megs, and it continues to grow. I understand that's not an issue on Android, but on iPhone you need to manage better the cache the app is using. Thx.

For now I would just try using built in iOS functions to clear it manually.

Thx but unfortunately, by default (I mean no jailbreak), there is not built-in way to clear app cash. So you have to uninstall, reinstall, and reconfigure your app from scratch...

How much space is taking your app?

3GB at least that is what the manage storage section says.
