Insane Adobe scan app size growth

[Viktor T]

I've just used Adobe scan mobile app (redmi note 8) to scan 368 pages, having enough memory on my device. While cropping images afterwards I received system message, which said, I was running out of memory. I deleted 5+ Gb of apps and other data, so I could continue, but then the system message appeared again. When I looked at app data, Adobe scan got 9+ Gb growth. I totally don't get it, why has it become so large? Yesterday I scanned three other separate docs with 300+ pages combined and didn't have such issues, having even less device memory. After all, there no drafts left, I couldn't even save the photos, three hours of work in vain

Hi @Viktor T,

Hope you are doing well. Thanks for writing in!

Adobe Scan uses cache memory to process and save all the changes you make in every frame. This, along with all the content on the files is what takes up all the storage on your device, till you save the file and the cache is deleted.

Hope this clarifies your question.
