How do I delete Cache data?

[Android Central Question]

I see instructions on how to delete cache data. I go to Device Care | Storage and then supposedly there is a "Cached Data" option...but it is simply not there. Looked aroud a bit, cannot find "cached data" anywhere i've looked. I'm on Android 9, its a Samsung Galaxy (I think) says model SM-J337A. Says "software is up to date" so maybe this model will not accept newer Android versions.

Hi, which app?
If you long press it then tap info >scroll to storage should see it or bottom of your screen.

Welcome to Android Central! Are you talking about app caches or the system cache partition?

Not sure where you got your instructions for clearing caches but I found these instructions that are specifically for the J3 that don't match what you found. Try these and see if they get you what you want... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...base-204382/&usg=AOvVaw01ELsF3lknJxCcZfKKjlWm

Always be sure to include your device model when searching for information because there are a lot of Samsung Galaxy devices. While there are similarities between devices from the same manufacturer there are also differences as they evolve their hardware and software updates over time.

I remember there was option that had wipe cache in older Samsung Android version in device care but not anymore , system cache in recovery and apps you have to go to individual and clear
