What is "Other" category in storage and how can we clear it?

Update Time: 2025-05-09 18:12:43

Problem phenomenon:

The "Other" category takes up a lot of memory in the phone Settings > Storage.


Solutions:

"Other" stores the cache files of the system and third-party apps. It stores the memory generated while playing games, surfing the internet, etc. The more you engage and indulge in the activities on your device, the more memory is occupied by the residual files, shrinking the space on your device.

 

It is suggested that you uninstall the third-party apps that are not in use and clear the cache memory regularly.

Cleaning method: Long-press the app icon > click App info > click Storage usage > Clear data/cache. After clearing the cache, the occupied space will be reduced.
