Where Does the RTL+ App Store Data?
RTL+ keeps downloads and profiles in private storage under a legacy TVNOW package ID on both phones.
Last updated
Bertelsmann streamer RTL+ kept its TVNOW package through the rebrand. Private storage holds login session, profiles cache and downloaded shows under the legacy string. Device searches for rtl find nothing, which sends people hunting the wrong folder.
Downloads dominate disk use. Manage them inside the app download manager with an active subscription. Expired downloads need a network refresh even with space free. Profiles and watchlist live server side and return on any fresh login. Downloads refetch from the library after login.
