    Warning for ya'll: Check your files for UnityAdsCache.

    Posted: 26 May 2020 09:30 PM PDT

    In short, UnityAdsCache is exactly what is sounds like: An ad that is cached on your phone by unity. This can be in the form of a video or photo, and usually takes up several hundred kilobytes to several megabytes of space.

    To remove these: Search your files for "UnityAdsCache" and delete every folder that shows up. You might also need to search your camera roll / photos for the ads. You won't be losing anything of value :)

    Why and how does Unity store these?: Unity stores ads on your phone so you can be shown an ad at any time, even when you don't have an internet connection. Some apps use Unity ads for monetization; the app lets Unity download their ads to a sort of sandbox directory in your files that is just for that app.

    When do these ads go away?: The ads stay on your phone until you manually delete them. You probably have a sizeable chunk of storage lost to these ads if you're an avid mobile gamer.

    How do I prevent getting these ads in the future?: For starters, look on the Google Play store to see if an app you want has ads. Also consider buying the premium version of an app to support devs without ads. Otherwise, you can get a system-wide adblocker like Blockada which will block Unity from downloading ads to your phone.

    What can I do to help other people know about this?: Write a one star review on the app that hosts the Unity ads, saying that you want it removed. Report the app to Google Play for being malicious. Tell friends with Androids to delete UnityAdsCache files. Email Unity support to give them a piece of your mind.
