APP AND FILE SIZE

nicoparis — Fri, 25 Oct 2013 11:12:51 GMT

Hi

I need space on my device. So I want to delete some "without connection" playlist (1,7 Go).
Once it is done (I've switch the button) it is like the file are still on my device as the size of the app does not decrease as it should be. Even after restarting the device.

Can you help please?

The only solution seems to deleted the app and then re-instal it again. Not very user friendly....

Thx !

The memory usage for the iOS application is meant to release uneeded storage space when other applications require it. So when you undownload a playlist, the app will leave it cached until it or another application needs the space at which point it should remove the content.

"Should" being the keyword there...

Unfortunately, if you do have issues a reinstall is the only way to clear the data I'm afraid.
