iPhone storage says zero KB used

The built-in storage space display refuses to detect how much space is being used on my iPhone. It consistently says that 0 KB of space is being used, when the real number is obviously much higher. It won't recognize certain apps as having Documents & Data, even though some of them have several GB. Is there any way to reset this and get it to display an accurate number?

To solve the problem of "0 storage used," Apple support told me to back up my iPhone on iCloud, then wipe my phone, and restore using the iCloud backup. I am reluctant to try this, to say the least, especially since one of the repliers to this problem says that this fix did not work for them. Hey, Apple, send us an update that fixes this problem!

Ask and yes shall receive. Simply update your iPhone to the newest release which came out today, iOS 15.1. Memory utilization is now accurately reflected after the update.
