And it wont just go away. I just saved all the pictures in my chats to sd card and then deleted all the chats. At apps it shows mb data on device for signal. After reset and app update its still the same allthough there is no simgle chat or picture or whatever in signal. This is on a sony m4 aqua.

The only way I got it away on my own phone. But then the app completely resetted and, I got a new security code and all my friends had to accept that again. This makes the app unusable on phones with less phone memory. I do not believe there is an easy way without having root privileges, but maybe someone knows a way around. Does anyone who has this problem have a rooted android, can could give us some hints where the memory goes?

This is from my phone, i am not sure which sizes would be normal though. According to my android's app settings, signal consumes MB "data" and MB "cache". Save all the pictures from the chats, and see how much mb it is.

Then if you want. I think using mb is allready a lot ;- whatsapp would never have that. And i never ever in years deleted any chats in whatsapp. If no one with this problem can enlighten us where the space is going, we cannot do much about it. Maybe there are workarounds like moving signal to the sdcard, and mounting the sdcard on your pc? Or does adb pull work on non-rooted devices for every folder? Or can you use run-as? From last time till now after clearing all fotos from chats. So one month. Signal went frommb to 1,5 gb. This is totally useless for people with small internal storage phones.

And is clearly a serious problem for usability of signal. I'm kinda embarrassed to say I don't know how to do that. Some stackoverflow answers and the adb doc suggest that adb run-as can be used to access an app's storage. However, the app needs to be debuggable - i don't know whether the official playstore build is, nor if you can switch to the beta version. I'm afraid I can't experiment with rooting my phone to collect this information. I only have one phone, and I need it for work. More than happy to collect the info as long as it doesn't jeopardize the functionality of the phone.

Trolldemorted nope, tested with a beta v4. There are hundreds of small files named "partXYZ. Does anyone know what those files contain and if they are really needed? For me deleting attachments in Signal works as expected e. My Signal installation consumed more than 1 GB. Deleting attachments etc. Some files are pretty old. Is it safe to remove some of those files? Running signal version 4. ForGorNorPor can you check whether deleting an attachment decreases the file count in that directory?

Trolldemorted they don't appear to be jpg files. Tried to determine the file type using the file command and that just says data file. Also the. Just had some more time for testing.

So now my assumption is that this occasionally goes wrong and the capture file remains. I will try to reproduce that. Trolldemorted sure, but how exactly do I remove media from my chats?

Is this possible? ForGorNorPor By long pressing on the media in the chat, a menu appears that allows you to delete that specific media item. See for a pending request to multi-select and delete media. Ok, that's a bit cumbersome, I hope that this fix will be applied some day.

But good news is, that I indeed managed to get rid of MB by deleting some videos and pictures of my chats. I guess that the encryption bloats those attachments up in size, compared to WhatsApp where I did not encounter this issue ever. If the handling of attachments would be improved, I'd consider this issue fixed from my point of view.

Thanks for your help. After trying I found 2 ways to leave large files in that directory. I think the first option is not very likely to happen however the second one is. Don't know a proper solution, perhaps check the filesize prior to placing it in the capures directory or maybe that directory can be cleared at startup?

I noticed my Signal app was taking up over 1gb of space today, and after searching and finding this issue, I tested the results from my phone. There are some similar issues open on the iOS repo as well so it may not be specific to a mobile OS. Does Signal have a Patron or anything where we can support to get these things fixed?

I also notice that the performance opening, typing, and sending messages degrades greatly when the app gets so high into space usage.
