It’s that time again Lemmings.
Don’t forget to clear your Liftoff cache. Liftoff currently doesn not have a auto clear cache feature.
For those who don’t know how, Android instructions are below
- Long hold the Liftoff icon and select App Info
- Select Storage and Cache
- Press Clear Cache
Feel free to share your cache size and not compare our addictions.
Mate, the official Reddit App used to do the same shit until i think 2019, calm down. Cache clearing is really not that big of a deal
So long as you know to do it as your phone’s storage is gobbled up at an alarming rate.
Most of us are here because we think reddit is shit - that’s not your best point.
If you want manual cache clearing to be gone, you can always do a pull request on the repo, the app is still in beta, it is not in fact officially finished. Don’t expect a work in progress to be a completed product
So if the app fills my phone’s storage, and I don’t know why because I don’t know how to code, and didn’t know this was an issue? This doesn’t stop the app working properly - it stops your phone working properly pretty quickly.
If it’s in beta and affecting people’s phone function, maybe that beta needs to be a little tighter than just grabbing the app from the play store without any warning.
Exactly why I mentioned the official Reddit app at first. Also, filling up your cache and not properly clearing it is a common thing that happens across apps. So common that the button for manual clearing is part of the first things you see when opening app details.
If you own a phone which is not considered to be the “standard”, chances are high a lot more than just this app is not clearing their cache properly. I own such a non-standard phone, and let me tell you, regularly clearing the cache of Whatsapp, Discord and even Youtube are simply things I do every week.
