Wipe the Phone’s Cache:

  1. Open the apps drawer
  2. Go to “Settings
  3. Switch to “List view” if necessary
  4. Scroll to “Device” and tap “Storage
  5. Wait for the menu to finish calculating the data
  6. Tap “Cached data” > “OK
  7. Wait for the cache to be cleared, and once done, the storage screen will refresh showing the new amount of cached data (it should be much lower)
