So recently every time I try to update apps that are installed on my phone they fail because of not enough space. So I looked at my storage in the settings and most of the memory is being eaten up by miscellaneous files that take up roughly 6 GB of memory. So I open that up and deleted all those files and tried to download the updates again. It said there was still too little memory. So I deleted a couple of apps and restarted my phone just to be safe. After that I was able to update my apps. This has happened twice now and each time I have had to delete an app or two just to update other ones.
The thing I don't understand is why does it say I need more room to update apps? Shouldn't it just be writing over the old file and replacing it with the new file? I get that the file might be bigger but no way is it THAT much bigger that it needs that much more space.
Anyone else had this issue? If so, is there anything that can be done about it?
