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 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

Same. Iphone 14 pro app is using 127MB

[–] coralof 2 points 1 year ago

Same. Mine is about 250mb on an iPhone 12.

Same, mines about 500mb and i use memy all the time running ios 16

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

For reference, Apollo was using 1Gb.

[–] ferngully 3 points 1 year ago

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)).

[–] ferngully 2 points 1 year ago

Latest version of Memmy as well. 14 Pro.

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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.
