    It would be just clearing the cache from Safari, Facebook, Instagram etc as they often take up a lot of storage.

    As an Android fangirl would say….. At least Android takes microSD cards.

      As an objective observer would say…Wow, butthurt much?

      In this case, it sounds more like "at least you can do it directly from Settings". Having to go the roundabout way of trying to download a giant movie is … weird, to say the least.

      Though, I do know Android has trouble with wasting a lot of space on crash logs/dumps if you run any unstable apps. And it's even harder to clear those out, if not outright impossible. Dunno if iOS does any better there - probably just fewer unstable apps!

      I ended up just deleting the FB as it was up to 500meg. Just use the mobile site via a bookmark on the home screen.

    I did it 3 or 4 times and got over 4gig. Worked on Ipad as well.

    2.0GB free on the ipad, ran the hack. I now have exactly 2.0GB free.
