Managing Storage on the iOS Canvas App: Can I delete student submitted video?

I'm an admin - a teacher reported that Canvas Teacher for iOS is filling up his iPad storage largely because of student video file submissions. I tested uploading a video and the file seems to automatically download to the Canvas app although I cannot delete it.

I checked the storage for Canvas Teacher on my own device and got 400MB

After deleting and reinstalling the app it's down to 100MB

But will it redownload everything 'in the background' and is deleting the app the only way to manage storage

I have tested if Canvas Studio videos consume ipad storage....
