Subject: Merlin being giant data hog, but "data and documents" files not accessible - advice?
Merlin is soaking up 200G of storage on my phone, of which most is "data
and documents". Only a very small fraction is the app itself, per my
phone's memory usage data.

I go into Merlin to see my data and documents. Click on Sound Recordings
-- nothing comes up. (This isn't new -- I haven't been able to access any
sound recordings in Merlin in years)

I would like to delete my "data and documents" for Merlin since I can't
access them anyway and really need the 200G of storage for other things,
like the operating system.

This is on an iPhone.

(I don't think it's a bunch of bird packs because I have already offloaded
the ones I'm not using. Only the Southeast pack shows anyway)

Appreciate any advice on how to shed 200 Gigs.
