I load txt files on Calibre companion so I can easily see what books I have and don't have when my laptop is off, as I get books from all sorts of retailers.

I am getting the following message. My Ipad had 89.5GB free so its not my ipad that's out of space. Is there a limit on how many txt files can be stored? I have 6055 at the moment and wanted to add another 70 tonight.

Its the same problem on both my Ipad Air (2019) and my Ipad Mini 5. Calibre Companion is Version 2.0.15 (1)

The first error message is this, followed by a list of books not loaded.

calibre, version 5.17.0
ERROR: No space on device: <p>Cannot upload books to device there is no more free space available in main memory.</p>

This is the longer error message

calibre, version 5.17.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

Device closed the network connection

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
