Mine is at 1.81 GB !!'
Erasing all other games in anticipation of another GB for PvP , and another for the 2 other boards that there going to unlock . Then I'll have to erase all photos and basic functions for more bug fixes . My phone will no longer be a phone , just a portable Iron Maiden gaming system.💀

Can anyone on Android kindly take a screenshot of where it says the size of the game is so high?

My smartphone keeps saying the total size is 105 MB, and i'm not sure if there's anywhere else i should look into

REJOICE!

THE GREAT LORD NEKROLIUN HAS FOUND A SOLUTION!

Delete the game then reinstall it, when it finishes downloading the "additional files" it should be 0.8GB


I bet the other 1 Gb was unused files of the talismans that were deleted, FOTD event, and pretty much every past update that was either changed or removed.

Yep, app size has been bloating with every update since (and including) the Oct 18th tuning update. Only way to fix right now is to delete and reinstall (iOS) or clear app data and reinstall (Android). This has been mentioned to Sparton, but it is unknown if he believed that it is a problem or not.

Just tried this and I can't get back to my old account. Keeps wanting to make a new account even though my old one has been saved.

Please help. I have lost everything.

Are you clicking the start button? There's a little icon in the lower left corner that lets you enter email and password

Oh yeah, I should have mentioned to make sure you are sync'ed and have your info handy before doing the reinstall / data clearing. I find e-mail + password to be more reliable than the Facebook sync since Facebook has been known to be a pain in the neck sometimes. You can hit the little profile icon to enter that info before hitting start, and sometimes it takes a game restart before everything shows back up (as the person above experienced).

Yeah that's about right. There for a while the size was bloating to over double that.

Thanks for this thread! My total was over 2GB, now under 1GB! I now have room to update my weather app.

I just encountered this problem. My (Android) tablet says Legacy is using 2.57 GB !

Seriously, how hard is it to garbage collect?
