I recently navigated to:
Users/gruberbastian/Library/Mobile Documents
There I saw tons of old iOS Apps I installed on my iPad over a year ago. Those folders are empty, but no matter how often I try to delete them (rm -r 'foldername'
), they re-create themselves.
I even cannot find them under the
System Preferences > iCloud > iCloud Drive
So for example I find a folder called
iCloud~com~FireproofStudios~TheRoom3
I type this in the command line:
rm -r iCloud~com~FireproofStudios~TheRoom3
Now the folder is gone, but after a few seconds, it reappears again.
How can I permanently delete old iCloud Apps and data?
UPDATE
This is the Library/Mobile Documents
folder
Apps like readdle~scanner~pdf
(and many more) are not part of the iCloud Drive overview:
