App's cache not clearing?

[EskayPLYZ]

Went to clear my phones app cache (multiple apps ex: hulu, youtube, gmail, lyft etc.) And a soon as i leave "storage" and re-enter it...the cache is back..the same amount in all. I found this out when i attempted to clear the cache to fix seeing the refresh icon on youtube (another issue). Help please.

I think you will find that Oreo doesn't allow multiple cache clearing, you need to clear each cache individually. Oreo claims to automatically clear the cache for you when it decides it's necessary. Normally you only need to clear the cache on am app if it is not working properly.

I attempted to clear them one by one since this phone (lg stylo 4) only has a "smart clean" option which i wrongly though cleared multiple caches at once. Seeing the refresh icon (cicle with an arrow) was unusual to me so I'm thinking theres a problem cause it's on more then just googles apps on my phone. And the phone is only a month old

Let's go back to the original reason why you wanted to clear all app caches. What's going on with the refresh animation on YouTube? Do you mean that while you're watching a video, you also see the refresh or buffering animation on top of the video?

It's while loading into apps or switching tabs in other apps (almost all,) not just google based apps.

Does this also happen in Safe Mode? https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-37693
