Hi there Matheuss999,
Thank you for choosing Apple Support Communities!
It sounds as though you're seeing that the "Other" storage category is using 29GB out of 32GB of storage on your iPhone. You're in the right place, and we'd be glad to assist in seeking a solution.
First, let's make sure your iPhone is updated to iOS 13.6. Be sure to create a fresh backup of your data. If you're unable to back up to iCloud, you could use a computer: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Then, Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
If you are already updated or you still see 29 GB of Other storage after, use this to contact Apple: Get Support
We hope this helps,
Cheers!
Just in case you are unable to update your iPhone 6, due to lack of space (due to this "Other" stuff that's taking up so much space):
Follow the procedures for backing up (you probably did, already, in preparing to update).
Erase your iPhone.
Restore from backup.
