The app shows it's taking up over 900 MB of space on my iPhone, the download is less than 300MBs... what's going on here that it needs a gig of space on a users device?

  @iLikeLEDs,

I would recommend uninstalling the application and reinstalling the app and logging in again. This should clear the cache and any data that was in the application itself.

 

Let us know if the app size is still larger than expected after reinstallation.

It could be the documents and Data, such as video clips or set schedules.

This is an example.  Please look at your phones storage and the app's detail to see if this is the case for you.

Well this is interesting! The only thing I have hooked up is a single led strip light.

  @Riley_S Thanks, I offloaded it and reinstalled and it dropped to 249MBs. Glad that worked out with minimal hassle. Cheers
