I love Apple music, but the cache is taking up my storage. Before signing up i got around 1.5GB free storage on my device, now i got only 10MB left. I only stream music, i haven't made the music offline.

Any idea how to delete/ clear the cache?

I found that if u go to settings then music then turn off iCloud music library then turn it back on it frees up a lot of memory. U can also do a hard reset by pressing the home & power button down until the apple logo appears

The easiest solution is to toggle iCloud Music Library off and on.
From StackExchange:
"The clearing and rebuilding of your music library takes time, so I hope Apple adds a simple "clear Music cache" button to the settings in the future."

1. Settings>Music: Turn off iCloud Music Library
2. Open Music app: Your library should start to clear
3. Settings>Music: Turn on iCloud Music Library
4. Open Music app: Your ;.library will be rebuilt
