Go to solution Solved by Aniallation,

Upon inspecting my iPhone in iTunes i see that 5.9 GIGABYTES of "other: is taking up my device. I tried all those steps online how to delete these files but nothing worked. Do you guys kno how to fix? thx

This is one of the reasons I hate how iTunes works, this "other" is so unspecific that it hurts. Really the only way to get rid of it is a restore.

Other is the files that apps other than the stock app uses and takes up. I.e. If you cache music with Spotify, it'll take up space,for me 5 gb of space.
