How to delete offline songs

[SubzeroSC]

Hi,

I recently noticed that after toggling an offline play list to not be available offline the storage used by the Windows Phone 8 application hasn't changed at all. It says in the settings that it uses the same storage as it was when the play list was available offline. Is this normal?

How can I force the application to clear all of the old offline songs from my device in order to free storage?

If it is like Spotify on iOS, you need to re-install the app to clear the cache.

Is this really how it is on iOS. I would be shocked if this is the only "solution" to this basic functionality.

If it is a bug it would be ok but definetely not an expected behavior. Thanks for the response I would give it a try as I already tought about this but as mentioned I hoped this is not what I was supposed to do as it will make syncing all of my other offline playlist a pain in the ass task in the future.

I know spotify neglects WP but surprised this also exists in iOS. I have this same problem. *sigh*

Now it 2016, is there another solution? I know on android there is a feature in settings to clear local data. Do we have something like that on windows 8? For a windows phone.
