Hi,
Is there a system limit to how much data an app can stash in the documents dir?
If so how do I get it, if not is there some kind of common sense limit?
thx

Answer re: last part ‘common sense about how much to store there’ - Store as little as possible. In fact, if you can get by putting in temporary do that. Only put things in documents that you need to keep forever or can’t have erased by the OS at some arbitrary time.
All temporary content should be stored in … well Temporary, and if something must be in document, but is not needed at a later date, delete it.
Document space is permanently used till you delete the contents or remove the app.
