Mine was sitting at 5GB. Hope we get auto cache emptying at some stage.

7.4 GBโ€ฝ The hell?

[โ€“] LazaroFilm@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How do you do that?

[โ€“] FrankenSpinach@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

On Android: Settings --> Apps --> Liftoff --> Storage --> click "Clear cache" in the bottom right

15.77 GB. Whew. Thank you for the tip!

Liftoff does seem to be unique in this regard as well. Just checked my Jerboa, Connect, and Thunder caches and all were less than 300MB. Liftoff was over 2g.

Ok how

[โ€“] slazer2au@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Android hold down the icon until the menu opens and select App Info.
Select storage and cache.
Press clear cache.

Omg, I had no idea. This fixed another bug I was having too with not being able to see my subscription list.

Was sitting at 15gb

[โ€“] nerdalie@lib.lgbt 2 points 2 years ago

Thanks for the reminder. Mine was at 4 gigs.

[โ€“] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Huh, I had 7.1 GB.

Check out Cache Cleaner and take care of all that junk at once. I just found it a couple weeks ago
