A friend of mine notified our subcommunity that his companion app was taking up a ton of storage. He deleted the app and reinstalled it, and the storage it was taking came way down to normal levels.
I checked mine: 2.6 GB. Another friend found his is taking up 2.6 GB as well.
This is way too much space for an app, and deleting it and reinstalling suggests something is wrong. Is this a known issue? Does Bungie have a recommended fix? Is deleting and reinstalling the way to go?
If you would like to check how much storage your app is taking, go to settings > general > storage & icloud usage > manage storage. Scroll down to Destiny.

Your phone should have a setting option to clear application cache. Applications will store data on the phone for faster loading times, moreso the more frequently you use an app and especially so if it's using the internet like this one is. I'm sorry I don't have the specific instructions, as I am an Android user. But do a search for how to clear your phone's cache. It should be a pretty basic straightforward task.
