You are experiencing the Storage bug in iOS version 15.0. You are therefore seeing 0KB used even though you are using way more than that (obviously). This bug does not affect any performance on your iPhone, however it is still annoying.

Did you update your iPhone to iOS version 15.0.2 on your iPhone? Apple has addressed that bug and is evident in iOS 15.0.2

  1. Update your iPhone to iOS version 15.0.2 if you have not done so already. Allow a few hours after the update has been completed before you check iPhone Storage and are able to view the full table.
  2. If the above does not work, then you can Try and Force Restart your iPhone EXACTLY as shown below and see whether that resolves the issue:
  • Press and quickly release Volume UP button
  • Press and quickly release Volume DOWN button
  • Press and Hold the SIDE button until an Apple logo appears and then release the Side button (Can take up to 20 seconds. (DO NOT release Side Button when invited to Slide Power OFF).
