Free up Tubi storage

Tubi keeps a watch cache so movies and shows resume quickly. Some versions also offer downloads. Your list and history stay on your account. Removing a download or clearing cache only deletes files on this phone.

See how much space Tubi is using

iPhone

  1. Open the iPhone Settings app.
  2. Tap General > iPhone Storage.
  3. Tap Tubi.

Android

  1. Open your phone Settings > Apps.
  2. Tap Tubi.
  3. Tap Storage or Storage and cache.

Tubi does not have a WhatsApp-style storage screen. Check Downloads if your version has that tab, then clear cache on Android.

Delete downloads if you have them

  1. Open Tubi and look for Downloads (profile, My Stuff, or a tab).
  2. If the section exists, remove titles you do not need offline.

Many Tubi builds are watch-cache only. If you do not see Downloads, the size is leftover playback data from movies you already watched.

Clear Tubi cache on Android

  1. Open your phone Settings > Apps > Tubi.
  2. Tap Storage or Storage and cache.
  3. Tap Clear cache.

Do not tap Clear storage / Clear data unless you mean to reset Tubi on this phone. That signs you out and removes local files. Your list stays on the account.

iPhone does not offer a separate Tubi cache button. Offload or delete the app in iPhone Storage if the system total stays high after you remove any downloads.

Reinstall the app if storage is still high

If you already cleaned media and Tubi still looks huge, a fresh install can clear leftover cache and temp files that are hard to reach by hand.

  1. Downloads and watch cache will need to be fetched again after you sign in. Your account keeps My List and history.
  2. Delete the app from your phone.
  3. Restart your phone.
  4. Install Tubi again from the App Store or Google Play.
  5. Sign in and restore from backup if the app offers it.

This often frees a lot of space. You may need to download some media again after restore.

What to do next

After Tubi is lighter, check your photo library for duplicates and similar shots. That is what Dedupo is for.
