It's only 1gb so while it sucks it can be lived with

Hmm ig Hmm I guess that's the last resort. Last thing I want to ask you is, does android 11 still get security patcbes? If it does, the aystem files might be replaced when updating and this will be gone.

Pressing other apps shows a list of apps but their total size is the same as the size listed in the summary. When I try to press system, this screen shows up, I believe it's the same in all versions with the exception of the number. https://i.postimg.cc/2CjXDf67/Screenshot-20221225-220838.png

The system option on the very bottom is described as containing 'files used to run android 11', these are not supposed to include downloaded files.

This is in the android 11 settings app in the storage menu.

Thank you for answering. This is similar tk the guest accout and is accessable in the same screen but this was meant to be a permemant account. I have tried restarting the phone normally (not as in a factory reset) and strangely one gb was gone but the system files are still one gb above what...

I got a new phone, and I created two user accounts. I installed an app on one and it was stored normally, but when I installed the same app on the other, it's size was added to the 'system' category in the summary on the settings storage page, while the user's category remained at zero gb. When...
