How to deactivate Cleaning Function?

So I have a problem with the "cleaning" thing in my iPhone, I tried like a year ago to do the "buy a movie with no space to auto clean your apps" but it keeps cleaning one of my games that makes you download the data inside the app so everyday it auto cleans the game and have to download it again and it's really annoying. Is there a way to stop the cleaning function?

iPhone 6s, iOS 10.3.3, null

Hello,


When your iPhone is low on storage, your iPhone automatically deletes cached and temporary files from your storage. This is why you see "Cleaning..." under some apps.


You cannot disable or manually enable this feature.


In order to have iOS not automatically do this, you will have to free up some space (for example 5GB) on your device.
