Storage issues

For sometime my iPhone 6plus has been acting up lately , whenever I delete pictures and delete apps to Malena some space for other stuff

system immediately jumps in to fill the gap in the free storage I got in a mere seconds

yesterday I tried to clear my storage and I had 700 mb free

so I went to AppStore to download back Instagram

and it said it doesn’t have space

I checked storage

it’s was 15.9 full out 16 GB

and system and settings took up about 14.9 GB

i am so sick of this

my phone won’t let me even delete an unwanted update

why do we get unnecessary updates for each half a gigabyte

it’s not even that useful in the long run

please help me find a way to get this problem out of my phone

If you deleted photos make sure you open the photos app and delete them from the recently deleted folder or they will stay there for 30 days.
