If you use Snapchat a lot, then chances are the social app has a lot of data stored on your device in the form of cache. While the cache, which consists of data such as images etc, that the app needs to work properly does not eat a large amount of storage and is typically temporary in nature, it can be a problem if you are severely running out of storage on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. In this post we will show you how you can free up space by clearing Snapchat cache in just a few steps.
