For some reason every time I start the app it takes forever to use the search function.

It's been like this every since I downloaded it. I'd have to shut the app down multiple times to get it to work. I can still play my music from my playlist but those show up a little slow at times also.

Does spotify save data to the phone's internal storage even though no song was ever downloaded?

I have Spotify on my android phone and I only ever 'Save' songs, never Download, yet it shows 3GB of internal storage used by Spotify. What is this data being stored on my phone by Spotify?
