I have a problem with iCloud Drive taking up space in my iPhone storage. I could not find the button to erase this from the iPhone storage and I could not find what app creates this. This iCloud Drive did not show up 2 months ago but keep on showing up. Anybody know how to remove this from the iPhone storage?
iPhone X, iOS 12

I'm having the same problem. There's nothing in my iCloud Drive, and I've already turned if off on Settings > "My name" > iCloud > iCloud Drive. The "Files" app does not show any files either. And still, iCloud Drive is taking 3,63 GB from my Iphone.
