What you can do
Free up regenerable caches while keeping original files, progress and bookmarks.
How to use it
- Open the Cache section of Storage analysis.
- Choose TXT, ebook, comic-reading or thumbnail caches, or clear all caches. Leftover temporary files can also be reviewed and cleared separately.
- Read the confirmation and complete cleanup.
Before you start
Ebook caches include converted content generated for MOBI reading; it regenerates as needed. To free a downloaded iCloud file, use Remove Download in its file menu rather than reading-cache cleanup. Clearing them does not delete original files, reading progress or bookmarks.
