Storage issue after updating to ios 15

Hi, i updated my phone to new IOS software and then 15.1. After few days of whatsapp my apps started crashing as it showed low storage. Before the update i had enough storage. Now, i freed upto 5 GB space, but the system data is eating all the space. I deleted many apps, files, videos and data from my whatsapp but of no use. After all the clean up i am left with 350 mbs. My phone was stuck for so many times for the first time. My apps keep crashing. Kindly tell me if there is another update to fix the issue or is there any other way to fix the problem? For the reference i am attaching screenshots please have a look on system data.

I face an issue with WhatsApp too, not sure if my problem is created by the same bugs.


I deleted some media files in WhatsApp to free up my storage. At the end, I see WhatsApp shown its latest used storage size is 5.41GB in the app, however, different scene at the iPhone storage screen which it shown WhatsApp is still taking up 39.97GB of storage size.


I got my IOS updated to 15.1.1 and restarted few times, the issue is still remain unsolved.
