hello, i use Huawei p9 lite and my phone has some sort of missing storage.
when i open the storage manager it says that i have 9.12 GB of data labeled "other", but when i tap on storage management to see what's that 9.12 GB it's showing me that i have 0.89GB of data labeled "other", i have no notification saying "internal storage damaged" or anything of that sort.
What could be the problem ?

"Other" is data your apps are keeping. It's not going to list all the pictures, cookies and history your browser is keeping, all the logins and passwords your apps are storing, etc., they're lumped into "other". And there can be a lot of that. Every time you p[en a web page that has pictures on it, the only way you're seeing those pictures is by having them downloaded to your phone. The browser should delete them when you close it, but if you don't close it (just run the launcher by hitting Home), then turn the phone off or restart it, they're kept until you clear the browser's cache. Other apps work the same way.
