CarolynCL Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Since the automatic upgrade, Cachly has massively increased in size, and is causing my iPhone to have problems when the app is running. Currently it is using 14.02 gig of data and I have only one premium offline Ontario map downloaded. It’s also newly trying to suggest that I download a pro Antarctica map. I never did anything with Antarctica yesterday and I don’t know where this even came from. I had a premium Antarctica app on my iPhone that I removed because since I came back from Antarctica, I don’t need it anymore. That was a couple weeks ago. When I left the house to go caching yesterday, it was telling me it was using 7 gig. I don’t have a screenshot of that but that’s what it said. By the end of the day, it was showing 14.02. It also crashed multiple times while I was using it and stopped serving me the Ontario premium map, displaying instead nothing. It was a pretty frustrating day caching and it was a good thing. I was with other people who had working apps. Cachly version number - 8.0.1(1) iOS version - 17.4.1 Device that you are using - XR If you are a Regular or Premium user of geocaching.com - premium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Hubbard Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 You can just delete the Antartica map and that will free up your space. The reason you are seeing it is that in the past, you must have download Antartica and it failed to uncompress (likely because the download was in the background) and was hidden in your filesystem. Cachly 8.0 will uncompress these and place these in your maps folder so that you have the option to remove them or leave them. Let me know if deleting it clears up space for you.

CarolynCL Posted April 15 Author Report Share Posted April 15 Thank you so much for the speedy response Nic! That seems to have done the job - Documents & Data are down to 4.8 (Offline Maps are 1.3) for an overall size of 5.24. I am hoping to get out this afternoon after work and give it a try in the field and see if it behaves itself (since it was during my usage in the field on Saturday that the strange increasing storage phenomenon occurred).
