Too many files have been created in your phone. Apps may stop working correctly and your phone may no longer start up. Back up any important data and factory reset your phone..

I'm using Samsung Galaxy A30

I have uninstalled apps and my phone has enough space, yet this message won't go

Hi, I am not sure which app creates this problem, but try this.
Open Settings > Apps > three dot on the right > sort by > size
Now you can see the apps which used the most amount of storage. Click on that app and clear storage.

Let me know whether it worked.

If your phone is misbehaving, it's possible that a third-party app is causing the issue. To figure out what app is acting funny, you can use the Safe Mode feature. In Safe Mode, your phone won't run any third-party apps. This allows you to easily identity and remove the app that may be causing the problem.

Turning on Safe Mode is as easy as it is safe. First, completely power off the phone. Then, power on the phone and when the Samsung logo appears, press and hold down the Volume Down key. If done correctly, "Safe Mode" will display on the bottom left corner of the screen. If "Safe Mode" does not appear, repeat the steps above.

Once you're in Safe Mode, you can remove the third-party app that is causing issues on your phone.

To exit Safe Mode, simply restart your phone and it will reboot normally.

Note: You can also enter Safe Mode by pressing the Power key, touching and holding the Power off icon, and then touching the Safe Mode icon.

Let me know if this help you 🙂

hi, Reset your phone, probably malware. You can upload you files to samsung cloud but that wont really help since they will be back once you are done resetting. What you can do is that transfer your important files in an external storage device and then reset your phone.
