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.
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.
