iPhone System Data Taking Too Much Space? | How to Clear System Data Storage?

How to delete the system data on iPhone and free up storage space? In many cases, the system data partition of the iPhone of a user takes the highest amount of space available on the iPhone. I've seen it go as high as 30-40 GB too. I tried all the tutorials available online to delete the system data storage on my iPhone and found no luck. Hence, I researched on my own, and here is the fool-proof method for you to delete the system data on your iPhone easily.

they will not stop this brother. This is how people see their phone's storage is full. This means for Apple time to purchase a new phone with more storage, or for those some cheapos use their icloud service. Which means they can never leave the apple eco system.

Doesn't matter if you have 256gb or 1 tb storage apple will consume more then half of your storage with system data. That means it could take up to 500gb in system data.

Apple really need to solve this in future updates. BTW iphones will bigger memory will consume even more of system date space so it really doesn’t matter if you buy 128 gb iphone

[@MaxKasai-zm5mz]

Is there a way to buy more storage??

Your solution is correct but messing a couple steps 1: don’t upload your IOS data to iCloud 2: when finish don’t transfer from other phone , instead download your info, from your iCloud account

[@jalee6587]

@@sehancherian that's why I refuse to get an iphone. I only use iPad . Daily use on iPhone and system storage will be consuming more than 120gb on a 256gb phone. Apple does this on purpose because they know most of it's user base are stupid and will run out to buy a new iPhone to fix the problem. Android has file management and I never have any issues on storage with my 128gb one plus 7 pro I have been using since 2019. I still have 100gb free space.

Yes , that is one way to get storage, however, another way is to transfer all apps and date to I cloud or Itunes then back again. I have done it and I did not lose any important files.

Try signing out and in iCloud before resetting your phone

[@insaneartist4453]

I LITERALLY HAVE 32GB LIKE WTF

[@GreysDen]

My last iPhone was the iPhone 6 with 16 GB, after two years of usage the phone kept telling me I'm out of storage. No matter how much I deleted content, it would still be the same. Finally realised that Apple was eating up ALL of my storage (at one point up to 12 GB out of 16) in the garb of system files. I factory reset my phone and stopped updating my phone and it worked fine afterwards...minus the software limitations that required me to update my system. I realised Apple uses various underhanded and unethical tactics such as slowing down older phones (which they got caught doing) or eating up storage space to intentionally force us to upgrade to the next iPhone. To this day, the iPhone was the only phone in my 35 years of life that didn't last me at least 3 years of satisfactory uninterrupted usage. Luckily I wasn't too deep into the Apple ecosystem, so I bought an android phone and swore off buying future Apple products. The only way you can stand up against unethical practices is buy refusing to financially support it.
