    There is another simpler way, you go to settings / general / storage, you let the data load, and it will put you: system memory, used space, cached data, various files and available space. You give the data in cache, and it will tell you: this will erase the data in chace of all the applications. Simpler than how you explain it, yes, I have no idea if it is only for samsung galaxy phones or for all
