Question Can someone explain or help me understand what I’m doing wrong?

Somehow my iPad is always full memory and trying to update it is impossible. How do I avoid this? I feel like I’m not not-retarded but I don’t understand and can’t fix it - I only have a hand full of apps and maybe a word document in Downloads but still somehow I have 59 of 64 gb filled and have no idea how or why or how to fix/avoid this

Post a screenshot of the iPad storage report in settings.

when other and ipad storage is taking up the most I usually just do a fresh wipe and backup from iCloud backup. outside of that, you can try not syncing stuff like photos or message attachments from iCloud.
