Very frequently used app keeps being offloaded

I have 10 GB memory left on a 32 GB 2017 iPad. The iPad has over the past week constantly been offloading an app I use multiple times every single day, and have for over ten years (MLB). I've checked and I'm using the latest version of the app, and iPadOS is up to date.


Is there any way to fix this?

iPad, iPadOS 16

Hello Charlene Vickers,


It seems like the iPad needs more storage space, even if you have 10 GB free. That's why it continues to try and delete this app. You can disable this from happening in the following location:


  1. Go to the Settings app on your iPad.
  2. Tap on App Store
  3. Tap to disable Offload Unused Apps


This should disable the iPad from removing apps. Moving forward, you'll need to manage your iPad storage using the following: How to check the storage on your iPhone and iPad - Apple Support


Have a lovely day!
