Portal scanning data.
in General
I have recently held and later uploaded several hundred portal scans without any problems.
But I have a colleague who seems to be having a lot of issues with their phone after scanning and saving for later a couple of dozen.
So I have a couple of questions.
I see that each scan seems to be about 50 to 120 mb on the phone. At least according to the app. I guess this is actual space used and that it is not a compressed value.
When it is uploaded I imagine that it is automatically purged from the device.
Has anyone (with more technical ability than mine) identified where it is stored and what happens after the upload?
Is there any way to confirm that it has been purged?

It's stored in in game cache. If you clear that cache or uninstall the game you lose everything.
Actually it's stored in "data", at least for Android. If you wipe cache, you won't lose scans. If you wipe data, you will.
