Files app on my iPad says it’s using 12gb but on my iPhone, it says 44mb.
because of the sudden jump in space, I dont have anymore ipad storage left cause I only have the 32gb iPad. How do I fix this? Both file apps have all the same stuff in them.
iPad, iPadOS 14
Your iPad and iPhone are likely to differ in their use of local/device storage utilisation as each may have different App installed - and will almost certainly have different cached content.
If your internal storage is full, your only option is to better manage the storage that you have - and delete unused Apps or unneeded data.

“Offloading” Apps can be a helpful method of creating temporary space for the software update.

I’m like 90% certain it was just a glitch. I completely deleted the files app and reinstalled it. All my stuff is still there but now my iPad has like 14gb more of space.
Files app/ too much space
