apple Maps is taking up 37 GB of storage on my phone how do I get rid of that. I already deleted the app and reinstalled it and nothing changed
iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14
my Apple Maps is using 15gb of documents and data. When I delete the app the entire 15gb get reassigned to the “other” category. When I reinstall the app it reassigns the 15gb back to Apple Maps “documents and data”.
I was so frustrated that I did a factory reset a few days ago, which worked. But all day my phone has been running hot and losing charge on the charger and my Apple Maps is back up to 15gb of documents and data. (I have been driving all day with Apple Maps for directions via Car Play.
it seem Apple CarPlay, long days of driving, are required to recreate this issue. I can also confirm that a factory reset and restore fixes the issue, but not permanently.
Offloading or deleting does not remove the data. Only moves the data to “other”. Upon Reinstalling Maps, it comes right back.
I am reporting the same issue. It is connected to CarPlay somehow. Uninstalled Apple Maps and I will be using Google maps until it gets resolved.
I just reset my location and privacy setting and it deleted everything. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Location and Privacy.
