> Change view mode, manage shared links, turn on file previews, and clear cached data in BucketMate for iOS

Canonical: https://docs.bucketmate.app/ios/features/settings

Open **Settings** from the gear icon in the top-left corner of **Connections**.

## Subscription

Shows **Pro** with **Active on this device**, or **Upgrade to pro** with the App Store price. Tap the row to open the upgrade screen. See [BucketMate Pro](/ios/features/bucketmate-pro).

## General

### View mode

Tap the current mode next to **View mode** to change how file rows look:

| Mode | What it shows |
| --- | --- |
| **Comfortable** | Larger rows with name and size. This is the default. |
| **Compact** | Single-line rows to fit more items. |
| **Detail** | Dense rows with size, last modified date, and storage class. |

The change applies to every file list right away.

### Shared links

Shows how many presigned links you have saved. Tap it to open the shared link history. See [Preview, share, and download](/ios/features/preview-share-and-download).

### File preview (Pro)

Turn on **File preview** to show image and video thumbnails in file lists.

1. Turn on the **File preview** switch.
2. Tap **Enable** in the **Enable file preview?** prompt.

File preview uses more data and can affect scrolling performance. In the free version, the row is labeled **Pro** and turning on the switch shows a **Pro feature** prompt with **Buy now**.

## Advanced

### Clear cache data

BucketMate caches bucket lists, folder listings, bucket metrics, and preview thumbnails on the device so screens load faster. The row shows the current cache size.

1. Tap **Clear cache data**.
2. Tap **Clear** to confirm.

Fresh data loads on the next refresh. Clearing the cache does not delete connections or files in your buckets.

Cached data also expires on its own: bucket lists after 7 days, and folder listings and bucket metrics after 1 day.
