Cache

Hello, is there any way to clear cache or whatever it is on iPad 6th generation (2018)? It takes 21GB of my 32GB storage! I don’t know what to do with it.

Thank you


iPad, iPadOS 13

A simple restart will usually clear whatever is no longer needed (previously streamed music and videos, etc.). Once in a while one of the files can get corrupted and won’t clear. In that case perform a restore from a fresh backup (caches are not backed up).
