I cleared my Spotify “ghost” downloads, and my storage is finally free

My Android phone recently started gasping for air. When I checked my storage usage, Spotify was using several gigabytes on my phone, which didn’t make sense. I only had a handful of playlists downloaded for offline listening, so I expected the app to be much lighter. After some digging, I found an issue with Spotify’s cache—temporary files the app quietly stores whenever you stream music. If you’re encountering the same issue, there are several ways to fix low storage warnings without buying more space, but clearing the cache is a great place to start.
