Not possible to delete downloads after subscription ends
I downloaded some comics with smart downloads and downloaded some without smart option from my own local server to my own (local) iPhone. While I think it’s stupid to continous pay for a local feature, I cancelled my subscription. Now it’s not possible to delete these downloads other than to delete the app completely and re-install + re-enter all settings, because the sync on Apples iCloud within iOS is also hidden behind a subscription paywall.
So the best option is not to subscribe, if there is no setting to delete the unusable 50GB data of these downloads…?

I deleted the smart download entries, but that does not affected the downloaded files. Then I found the option to delete read downloads which had no effect. I see the button was clicked in Liquid Glass, but the used space for Komic was still the same. Next I tried to click on delete all downloads. Same effort: can see that the button was clicked, but nothing ever happens, which I was thinking about a bug on these two buttons. Didn‘t think about to enter the files App to search for data there. Normally all apps store their datei within a database, to force users to subscribe. If all comics are stored there as original it would be possible to delete them there instead of the not working buttons, but if the originals are stored there, than it’s also possible to read the comics with preview or other reading apps locally. The only App that cannot read these original comic files are Komic because to read local files the user should to subscribe…? Can’t test it anymore, because I deleted Komic App and re-install. Now the folder within files App is empty, but I need to re-enter my komga server details again in Komic
