What device? Unless it has an SD slot, if it has 16 GB of storage on-board that's all you're getting as adding more is impossible unless you can desolder chips and replace them with larger-capacity ones that will work in their place.

Buy a phone with larger internal storage.

If your phone has an SD card slot, you can try moving files to that. You may also have the option to move apps to the SD card, but that is prone to data corruption and lost performance when used that way. If app storage is your problem, buy a different phone. 64 GB is about standard for mainstream devices now, up to 512 GB on the Note 9
