Clear App Cache/Data:
NOTE: If one of your apps doesnt work as intended, freezes, crashes, or takes up too much storage inexplicably, you can try fixing these issues by clearing the apps cache/data.
WARNING! When you clear an apps data, all your personal data stored with the app will be deleted, including user profiles and login information, save files, settings etc. To avoid losing personal app data, clear ONLY the cache.
- Open Settings
- Go to General
- Tap Apps and select the desired app
- Go to Storage
- Tap Clear cache
- If clearing the app cache didnt help, you can try Clear data > OK (check the Warning above)
Clear the Cache Partition:
NOTE: If your phone freezes, crashes, runs out of storage inexplicably or otherwise doesnt work as intended and youre considering a factory reset, alternatively you can try solving these issues by clearing the phones cache partition. This can lead to similar results to a factory reset without losing personal data from the phone.
- Open Settings and go to Phone Management
- Tap Storage
- Tap Internal storage and wait for the device to finish calculating the data
- Tap Cached data > Clear to confirm
NOTE: If clearing the cache partition didnt help, you can check this thread for instructions on how to factory reset the device instead.
