Podcast App Storage

I recently wanted to free up storage space on my iPhone 6 and noticed that my Podcasts app is taking up the most. Even after deleting all of my downloaded episodes and removing shows from my list, the number of MB representing Documents and Data went up. Rather than freeing space, I did the opposite. Can someone explain why that happened?

iPhone 6, iOS 10

Podcast Storage Usage Why does the Podcasts App use so much storage space? All downloaded episodes are using 818mb of storage, yet the documents and data are using 17.39gb of storage. Why? What is the other 16+gb? Is there a fix for this?

iPhone storage I need more storage on my iPhone to upgrade to iOS15. I notice that Podcasts use a lot of storage: App size: 15.4 MB Documents and Data: 4.77 GB I deleted all the downloaded episodes I could find but the size of Documents and Data has barely budged. What is represented by these 4.77GB of documents and data and can I delete some of it to get more storage? Thank you

delete podcast app off ipad?it says its taking up 17.89 GB of my 64 GB. I I know you can’t really delete the podcast app. But it says it is taking up 17.89 GB of my 64 GB on my iPad. I have deleted all individual episodes listed. I don’t understand what could possibly be making it that big since I don’t ever remember using it on anything other than my phone. Can anyone help me shrink that/remove it/tell me what happened to make it so huge?
