How can I lower my OTHER memory?
Clear Other storage on your iPhone or iPad
If you have iOS or iPadOS 13, your iPhone or iPad storage is full, and the storage is mostly taken up by "Other" storage, update your device to iOS or iPadOS 13.6.1 or later.
Update your device
An issue in iOS or iPadOS 13 might prevent the system from freeing up storage for you. To fix this issue, ➔ update your iPhone or iPad to iOS or iPadOS 13.6.1 or later.
If you don’t have enough available storage to update wirelessly, ➔ update your device to iOS or iPadOS 14.1 or later using a computer.

Often the only way to remove other is to backup your phone, then restore your phone from backup. This method gets rid of the accumulated files hogging your memory.

Thank you Axel, my iPhone does have the latest 14.4 update. Apple should have the option to be able to purge the OTHER memory by removing unnecessary files, caches, etc. Thanx again!
Which iPhone do you have?
