Please add a Junk cleaner in Device care as it used to have in Android 9.
It will be helpful in clearing cache and maintain free space in the phone.
Thank you.

Android is smart enough to clear unnecessary cache by itself.

let me give you an example.
I have 100 gb left on my phone internal storage right now, until next sunday, I will have 98 gb storage left.
where did the 2 gb go..??? I have not downloaded anything, and all the photos and videos are on the sd card.

One week of using chrome alone, normal browsing creates about 1gb of cache which doesn't clear by it self.
Then social media apps, youtube, email etc also creates junk which you need to clear manually
so I go in to apps, and clear cache of every app one by one, and voila I am back at 100 gb.
So, Android was smart enough to clean junk when they had a junk cleaner in devive care.
You should try the above method, you will create a lot of free space.

It does not keep on decreasing as you mentioned. I have never faced something like that. Storage remains consistent. The 1 GB does not go on the be 2 GB, then 3 GB and so on. The olc cahe is deleted and is replaced with the new cache.

yeah you would think that such feature would be present in a flagship device like S10 plus.
but Samsung being Samsung, what could you expect more.
Its like they just dont want people to buy their flagship devices, mid range devices still has headphone jack and sd slot.
