Remove cached map content from User Data storage (Android)

I periodically have to reinstall the game because the User Data storage for the app gradually takes up more and more space as I play, even though I have all the assets downloaded. I suspect this is because the map content is being stored in User Data. (I’ve seen players who travel a lot with the game taking up to 10GB on their devices.) This is a problem on devices that have limited storage space and/or no SD expansion available.

People sometimes play at locations they might never visit again, such as during vacation. The maps for such places shouldn’t be stuck on their device until they reinstall the game.

If possible, I would implement a button in the Settings menu to ”Clear map cache” or the like, which would delete all downloaded map content and free up a lot of storage space with a single click.
