Storage Caches

[dee11]

Hi,
Sorry but not to confuse anyone, I'm making it a little easier..

1): Storage: Free up Caches:
A... When I click on delete 4 the caches, they all disappear quickly .
2): The percentage of to be freed is always the same after deleting those caches
3): When I click on Download & Idles caches to be deleted, the same thing happens as for the 1st one. So really nothing changes, no percentage , all are the same.
What can happen to free up spaces under Storage?

This is what I'm saying about the caches are not really deleted, they just stay the same amount on everyone of these.

Regularly dumping caches is at best a very temporary fix when trying to clear up free storage space. I'd suggest focusing on more substantial solutions like moving photos, videos, and music files to a microSD card to free up space in your phone's internal storage.
Caches are necessary for apps to work so by deleting them, all you're doing is every time you use your apps again they are forced to rebuild their then missing cache files.
A lot of those alleged 'clean up' utilities claim to open up free storage space by doing things like clearing app caches, a deceptive smoke-and-mirror tactic to give the user the impression they actually do something helpful, but the reality is cache files may be temporary and non-vital but they are necessary. Leave app caches alone, unless you're actually encountering a problem with the apps functionality.
