Imovie taking up space on my iphone

I use Imovie to take video clips. Once the clips are uploaded to onedrive I delete them so there is never more than about a dozen 5 minute clips on my phone at a time. Once I delete the clips I also delete them from my photo library and Icloud. Imovie is currently taking up 16.5 gb on my phone. I don't understand how this is possible! How do I clear this? Almost all the articles I found have to do with the Mac. I found an old article about clearing the cache but it's an old version of the app and the info is no longer accurate. Thanks for the advice.

Well, clearing the cache seems to be the best option for you. Unfortunately, the only way to do this on iOS is to delete and reinstall the app. Make sure all your clips are actually in OneDrive before going through with this.


Good Luck!
