Why is my app size increasing (facebook). Is there a way to clear temp files for apps?

Is there any solution for this, as i have iPhone 4 8GB.
Any apps to clear temp files killing my space ?

Hey priyankarzana,
First, try deleting the app and redownloading:
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-right corner of the app.
Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store.
Search for the app and then download it again.

You can also try to restore from an iCloud backup to see if that helps. You can read about how to do that here:

  • Is there a way of making secure folders for apps?

    HI, I have the iPad 1,  can anyone tell me if there is a way to make certain apps secure, lock them, so that other people that may use the iPad do not have access to them.

    Seems like an interesting idea. Leave feedback for Apple here:

  • Will app sizes increase across the board because of the new iPad?

    After the release of the new iPad on Wednesday, most apps figure to update their capabilities accommodate the new iPad's boosted resolution. And it appears that this process will result in an appreciable — if not significant — increase in app size. For example, Apple's Find My Friends app has gone from 14MB to 18MB in an update optimized for the new iPad Retina display. GarageBand went from 768MB to 801MB. Obviously, for users who download lots of apps (like me), these app size increases represent a strong argument against purchasing a new iPad with the minimum capacity of 16GB. What do you think?

    People seem to be focusing on the size creep in apps, however, this is likely to be functionality driven more than due to the display for most apps. The real driver that I have found wrt storage space is videos. Now with the new display it is likely that people will move more to HD videos from iTunes, etc.. and this will be what drives the increase in storage required.
    If your photos are compressed JPEGs then what you'll have to think about is how many videos you want to carry. There is also the possibility that with the new screen resolution that people start to store pictures at higher resolutions also which might drive storage.
    Either way HD is a canny move by Apple as it will ultimately drive revenue growth through iTunes ;-)

  • Since installing iOS 8.1.2 on my iPad, the facebook app stopped working.  Is there a way to fix it or go back to the previous iOS?

    Since installing iOS 8.1.2 on my iPad, the facebook app stopped working.  Is there a way to fix it or go back to the previous iOS?

    Sorry, no. If Facebook isn't compatible with the current iOS it's on Facebook to make its app compatible.
    Have you tried to access facebook via safari? I personally abandoned the app years ago due to it being very buggy. I access it via safari with no issues

  • Is there a way to restore the All Contacts app on my iPad 1.  it seems  the data and cannot turn a page or add more contacts

    Is there a way to restore the All Contacts app on my gen 1 ipad?  I seem to have lost the data and can't turn a page or add new contacts.  I did try to reload the contacts (and I guess everything else) from my itunes computer backup but nothing happens to the All Contacts app. everything else seems to work fine on the ipad so I'm not sure what happened to the data or why.  not sure i want to try and reset the whole ipad just for this one little app or feature...thanks in advance to any replies.

    Sorry, had to sep out.  I see the contacts "page" but I can't use the letters on the left margin or a finger touch to change location.  Nor does anything happen when I touch the plus sign to allow me to add a new contact.  So maybe he actual old contact data is still there I just can't get to it.  Rick

  • Is there a way to get push notifications for social apps on the Droid Maxx

    Is there a way to get push notifications for social apps on the Droid Maxx? With text messaging, you will see a badge icon, but I wasn't sure if you could do that for social networks, too.

        @cmabbott85,
    I can definitely understand how important it can be to get your Facebook or Twitter notifications on your phone.
    As @rcshnoor mentioned, each app does have the option to turn the notification on or off. You need to launch the App and go into the Menu. Then go to App Settings and make sure notifications are checked.

  • I am trying to free up space on my hard drive. I am wondering what if any of the itunes files for apps or music can be deleted without affecting the use of them in the future if they are loaded on my i phone and i pad 2?

    When I search my hard drive to find space for freeing up memory I have a lot of files for Apps, and music.  I am wondering if these are pertinant and need to be kept on my hard drive, or if I can remove them in any way.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I am going to revise my question to this.  If I compress my itunes folder which would save me a considerable amount of space will this make the music and apps information stored in there unsyncable?

    We had a MacBook Pro stolen from our home when we were out of town and I am pretty sure we never activated the LoJack type of function on it not sure if its called lojack but you get what I am saying is there any way we can activate such  hardware/app now so we can possibly recover our laptop? Any one who can point us in the right direction that would be great and we would be very grateful. Thanks So Much

    Lojack for laptops - if that is the product you purchased and installed, you will need to read the user manual or contact the manufacturer as it is 3rd party.  You did file a police report right?

  • I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each.  It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now.  If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc?

    I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each.  It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now.  If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc so I don't lose all of that information and can easily switch to a singular apple id?

    Apple does not transfer content bought with one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple will not merge two Apple IDs.
    If most of your content was bought with the Yahoo! Apple ID but you now want the Gmail address for your Apple ID, the trick will be to change the address used for the Yahoo ID with the Gmail address. However, to do that you must first free the Gmail address from that other Apple ID. Use the instructions from Apple to substitute another address that is not used as an Apple ID for your Gmail address in the Apple ID with the Gmail address. Then, when the Gmail address is no longer used in an Apple ID, you can use the same instructions to substitute the Gmail address for the Yahoo address in the Apple ID with the Yahoo address.

    Open Pictures folder and move the files named lrcat-journal and lrcat.lock to Desktop.
    Make sure that , they are not inside Pictures folder any more and try to open backup from Lighrtroom and check..
    Any LRcat file with .lock extension , move it to Desktop.

  • I have just signed upfor family sharing. Is there any way you can get the same app on two devices but not have to share it? My sons both want clash of clans but they don't want to be on the same village and they can't both be on app at the same time?

    hi, the app is not "shared", it works as if you bought the app twice with different accounts, only you paid it once. they should have 2 different villages since they're on 2 different devices.

  • Is there a way to find out all the apps that I've deleted on my iPhone? If so how?

    What is iOS 5 ?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1521
    And does my iPhone 4 as that?
    Settings>>General>>About>>Version
    (Used my iTouch as example)
    And if it deos how can I see the apps that I've deleted ?
    App Store>>Updates>>Purchased
    Scroll through the list of apps that your purchased, and if you remember the apps that you delete, the search will be a lot easier.
    If you don't have iOS 5, you can update your iPhone and since you have an iPhone 4, you can only go up to iOS 6.1.3

    Hope all this helps.
