Problem with the app on a Lumia 820

I have my settings enabled to store new music on my SD card... That doesn't happen and seems to be deliberate. During a tidy up exercise, due insufficient space reports on the phone, I noticed that Spotify was using 1.8GB of space. This seemed mighty impressive as I'd deleted all my offline files. Something is not clearing down properly, having reinstalled the app, it's now sized at 8.2MB!

The app leaves a lot of stuff in the cache on all devices to conserve bandwidth. As you found out, manually clearing the cache and reinstalling works but isn't necessarily efficient.

8.2MB is still not that much space in comparison to 1.8GB
