iPhone EN Sync using 1.5gig - How To Remove Data from iPhone

[David Reed 2]

Hi Everyone,

I am an EN premium user, and have it on several devices, including my iOS iPhone 6+.  However, I recently discovered that it's using 1.5 gig, which I realize is likely due to a few notebooks i had set to sync for offline use.

I removed those syncs for offline use, but the data appears to still be on the phone (at least, the iPhone still reports EN as using 1.5gig, and thus, same size.)

Any thoughts on why the space doesn't appear to have been freed-up, and what I can do to get EN back down to a manageable size on my iOS iPhone?

TY,

David Reed

You can delete the app temporarily - it's easy to reinstall

I did that, but, is that really the only way to fix the problem?

Signing out and back in might do the job,  but uninstall / reinstall is (or should be) an easy and quick fix...

I did try that, and that did work.  An awkward way to go about it, but it worked.  Another opportunity for feature enhancement!  )
