iPad Low Disk Space

I have a 256g iPad with only 40g of space used.

While attempting to download updates to an app, which I routinely have done in the past with no issue, the iPad prompts me with "Downloads: Low Disk Space

"Zero KB of disk space is needed for download and decompression but only Zero KB of space is available. Would you like to continue?"

I selected "Download", but then nothing happens.

I dont understand why I am getting the message in the first place with over 84% of empty storage

Did you ever figure out the issue? I have the same thing happening to me when i try to download updates on ForeFlight mobile. I checked my storage and I have only used 20.2 GB of 256GB available. Let me know if you found a solution please!

I just got an apple iPad mini 256gb. I have used zero in storage but I’m getting this and message in ForeFlight app. It says zero kb storage is available. This is frustrating.
