I deleted about 30 Gigabytes of Photos from my phone and now the other section takes up 36 Gigabytes out of 64 total. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem and knows the solution. I checked my photos and my recently deleted. I think, somehow, the photos weren't deleted but moved to a cache or something similar instead.

How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
About cached files in "Other"
Finder and iTunes categorize cached music, videos, and photos as Other instead of actual songs, videos, or photos. Cached files are created when you stream or view content like music, videos, and photos. When you stream music or video, that content is stored as cached files on your device so you can quickly access it again.
Your device automatically removes cached files and temporary files when your device needs more space.
If storage on your device differs from what you see in Finder or iTunes
Since Finder and iTunes categorize cached files as Other, reported usage for Music or Videos might differ. To view usage on your device, go to Settings > General > [Device] Storage.
If you want to delete the cached files from your device
Your device automatically deletes cached files and temporary files when it needs more space. You don't need to delete them yourself.
The problem is that "other" isn't working. My question is how do I fix other if it takes up more than 2/3 of my storage
The Other Section Takes Up More Than Half of My Iphone Storage
