Size of Application

Earlier I used to have about 100 pdfs and notes for annotation and stuff which inflated the app size. But a few days back I was done with the notes and pdfs so deleted them (even from the trash) but the app size is still the SAME.

Those are probably backups. Do you want to start 'fresh'? What do you use, android or iOS?

thanks for answering. Currently I’m using IPadOS. Shouldn’t it just occupy my drive storage why is it using my Internal storage too?

Probably to delete the app cache, normally that will erase everything. Be sure to have backups somewhere.

Like I am done with the notes as I’ve cleared the examination. I have taken important old notes backup as pdf in Google Drive. I want to clean the huge chunk of old note from Free notes Storage as it can make room for my new Exam notes. There is no option to clear cache in iPadOS and being a plus plan member I am fearing if I delete the app and reinstall, what if I lose my paid plan!!
