iPhone backup

Hi

does anyone know why my iPhone storage shows me 87 GB and when I backup to iCloud it shows me only 50 Gb? I want to reset my iPhone and recover from iCloud backup and I’m afraid that not all content is there

That probably means that the total of iOS itself plus the code in all of your apps is 30 GB. Neither iOS nor the actual programs thenselves are included in a backup, because both can be downloaded again, either from Apple’s IOS distribution servers or the App Store.
