deleting documents and data in usage.

iOS and iPadOS

Hi guys, Offen to make more space, I remove apps dew to the size and then re-install them to get rid of the files and space that the app takes up over time.
Is there an easier way just to get rid of those files.
A good example is facebook.
The app size is lets say 100 mb, but over time the documents and data is an extra 2 or 300 mb, That obviusly takes up space.
How can I get rid of the documetns and data without un-installing the hole app?
Thanks,

Gary.

Memory and Disk Scanner Pro

Hi Gary.

You might want to check out Memory and Disk Scanner Pro. It won't clear out all the built in cache of
apps. e.g. the default Podcasts app but it should work for Facebook.

I use it all the time on both my iPhone and iPad.

Here's the app store link for it.

If you need any further help then please don't hesitate to ask away in the comments and I'll try my best to assist you further should you get stuck. but yeah, you'll be surprised how much space this little app can clear up for you. Why once, I almost regained 1 GB in size but generally for me its more around 200MB or sometimes 500MB but that is certainly better than nothing. I think it also makes the IOS device run a bit smoother as well.

So good luck and here is the app store link below.
