Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
i noticed the Health App on my iPhone was using 20.66GB of 64GB memory so deleted all of the health data, however is still showing as using 20.44GB data storage.
I have a feeling the ios14 update could be causing this. Has anyone else had similar issues with data storage following the update.
Any ideas?
ideas?

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 14
Apple’s recommendation worked for me. I had 1.6TB health data, no longer recording route data from my Apple Watch walks and cycles. My first attempt was to unpair and then repair my watch was not successful. My second attempt was successful. 1. Unpair Apple Watch (2nd gen) 2. iCloud backup (I have 2 TB option but backup no where big as 1.6TB or it would have failed), 3. Reset my iPhone X (side effects - had to add credit cards back to wallet after restore), 4. Restored iPhone X from iCloud backup ( storage report was back to expected value - all good) 5. Repaired Apple Watch. 6. Went for a workout walk and noted that activity app on iPhone X recorded the entire walk route. Big success! I needed an evening to get this done.

I fixed the problem with 14 as soon as the problem showed up. See one of my previous posts for the Apple reference. It’s good that 14.2 eliminates the need to use the procedure.
14.2 fixed the problem for me, thankfully. Health's 62+PB in first place, now down to 5th place at 473MB. Now, I just need to free up the 50+GB on my MacBook to be able to back it up again.
I’m on the current iOS
I was having the same issue. I deleted all apps that used my health data like my cycling/running apps and Apps that have to do with working out. Hope this helps.
