Clear cache on iOS App

skeltondark — Sat, 19 Mar 2016 14:53:14 GMT

Hi,

i've found many topics that related my trouble with my app on my iPhone.

I'm un-syncing one playlist and not seeing a change in storage space.

So, here the following details that you have asked :

a. Your iOS device and iOS = iPhone 6 with iOS 9.2.1

b. Your Spotify app version = 5.0.0.992

c. How much space is used before unsycning = 2,5 Go

d. How many playlists/ tracks you unsynced = one playlist --> https://open.spotify.com/user/digster.fm/playlist/5c1DEqd2707N9pUffcVhjM

--> http://cl.ly/2U0N0h262o3v

e. Please confirm how much space is still being used = 2,5 Go --> http://cl.ly/2y0S3L250H1z

According my research the spotify app doesn't have tools/function to permit efficiency a cache's cleaning...like DEEZER for example...

Why?

This is bad for the community...cause it's a simply function, nothing extraodinary.

So no solutions ?

Thks

It is probably fair to say that _everyone_ using Spotify on iOS has had this or similar cache related problems since at least 2014. It is a rather well known Spotify "feature" at this point. (And, as every end user knows, only bugs get removed while "features" stick around for a long time.)

I have more than 10GB of cache used by Spotify. In fact Spotify stores all tracks you ever heard on the device! It's not important to press the download button! The only way to kill the cache is deleting Spotify and then reinstall.

I have some issue ... or Spotify implement this feature to clear cache or bye bye to my premium account...
