How do I get rid of the “other” storage in my iPhone?
iPhone XR, iOS 13
Keeping in mind that the “other” storage category is mostly filled with cache and system files created by Safari, the Mail app, other apps and iOS itself. That space is automatically managed by iOS and you can’t interact with it.
That said, start here: Clear Other storage on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
If the issue still persists, some benefits to reduce that space can be also obtained creating a full backup of your device, then restoring it to factory settings and, in the end, setting it up as new, as per these instructions: Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings – Apple Support
When done, restore data from your previously made backup, then restart your device and
check your device storage again.
