There is this issue going on that the storage you have left does not match the categories that are using up your storage. I have the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic that has 5.01 GB of storage left but the only category that is taking the most is Watch Faces and Apps and it is 859 MB, with the rest being 5.36MB for Audio and 0 B for Images. There is no way to clear the cache on apps for the Galaxy Watch. I saw someone reporting a much worse situation with their storage in the 500 MB range with a Galaxy Watch 5 running the One UI 6 Watch Beta software. I hope that there can be a way to resolve this particular issue.

I think the rest of the storage space is taken up by the software

My only thought is like on a usb you have x amount of space buy it's lower than what's listed in reality due to software or driver space needed

Mine is about the same. I'm gonna say that most of it is used by the system. I don't really have much on mine and I have the same available space left. 1732066085237.jpg

It'll likely get worse after One UI 6 Watch rolls out to other users, they should add a system category and cache-clearing system

Hello Matthew, Thank you for being part of the Community. We understand the concern with the storage on the watch.

There is a way to clear the cache partition on the watch. Check out the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGgRY1vNKTE

It is typical to see between 5-6 GB of storage available on the watch with the software using the majority of the storage.

Let us know if this helps.
