Excessive storage usage

Great work on the app! I noticed a couple of days ago that the app was using a ton of storage. Deleted the app and reinstalled, less than a week later it’s back up to ~2GB. Haven’t seen anyone else mention it so I just wanted to point it out. Curious to see if everyone else is seeing large amounts of disk consumption.

I’m also seeing large documents and data space.

I have the space on my phone right now but it would be nice to have a clear cache button or something to get rid of some of that.

Seconded. It's much needed.

What iOS version are you running?

michikade@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 3y

iOS 17 developer beta 2.

I deleted Memmy and reinstalled it this afternoon and it’s already back to nearly half a GB.

Mine is at about 200MB and I use the app several times a day. So just adding my two cents that it’s not universal. iPhone 13 Pro here

I’ve been using memmy for a few weeks, mine is sitting at 78.2MB.

Interesting. It's using a bit under 400Mb on my device.

For reference, Apollo was using 1Gb.

This is interesting. I’ve had Apollo since launch and it’s still under 400MB with pretty heavy usage.

Just check mine. Documents & data is at 407.1 MB. I’m using an iPhone 13 Pro with 16.5.1 and have the latest version of Memmy installed (0.0.1 (73)).

Latest version of Memmy as well. 14 Pro.

Two pronged issue. Lemmy doesn’t downsize a lot of photos so they always get downloaded at full size. For now I’ll do memory caching for a lot of stuff instead of disk.

I’ll also add in a button to clear the cache.

Things you don’t use should get cleared out automatically, but I’ll make sure it doesn’t get that large.

A clear cache option was just added in the TestFlight. Worked like a charm.
