Traffic and memory usage

Device memory

How much space do I need to install the app?

The free space that's required for installation may vary depending on the app version. You can see the exact information in the app description in the official store:

Note

Different operating systems and their versions have their own requirements for free space in the device memory. That's why the operating system may block the app installation if it thinks that after installing there won't be enough memory for your device to run normally.

Can I install the app on my SD card?

You can't install the app on an SD card.

Why does the app take up a lot of space?

The app saves your search queries and Yandex Maps data, so the amount of memory that it uses may increase over time. You can reduce it by clearing the cache in the app settings.

Internet data

An internet connection is required for many app features, such as searching for information, listening to the radio, watching videos, and updating widgets.

If the app uses a lot of internet traffic, try disabling automatic uploads of photos and videos to Yandex Disk. If you need photos and videos to automatically upload to Yandex Disk, you can select uploading via Wi-Fi only.

If you notice that the app is using more internet data than usual, and the app's terms of use haven't changed, contact support.
