Sounds Saving to Device

Post by KKappesser
Every time I download personal videos and pictures from my Galaxy phone to my computer, dozens of .tts sound files also download. When I play the TTS sound files, they are directions from a previous trip when I've used Waze. For example one file is 7KB and says "Turn right onto Dixie Highway". How can I edit my settings so these files aren't downloading to my phone. With how often I use Waze this is an annoying feature!

Thanks!

That is your TTS Cache... Waze downloads those files so you can have spoken directions including street names. Waze stores them so the next time you have to be told to "Turn right onto Dixie HIghway" it isn't re-downloaded (using more of your data).

The Waze files aren't saved with your photos/videos - they are tucked away in the Waze folder. What are you using to download/sync your phone to your computer?
