Wow, that's crazy, thanks for letting me know.

The app should only be using background refresh to finish image downloads (so like if you're at 98% downloaded and close the app it still works), but looks like something went really wrong here. Probably got stuck in a loop trying to download a missing image all night or something.

I'm not that familiar with app development, but are there activity logs that could tell you exactly what it was doing?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nope, I don't do any logging. Not sure if iOS has any logs like this, but I dont think so - Apple has opt-in crash logs, but those wouldn't catch things like this.

I think I'll just disable background fetching entirely.

turn off background app refresh
