How to clear System Data?

I have over 80 GB in System data. I’ve tried factory resetting my phone and shutting down and starting my iPhone as new. Clearing caches… Nothing works. I’ve even exchanged my phone. The problem started when I changed to the green iphone 13 pro 256 go. I never had this isssue before and had over 100 GB storage available on my phone. Coincidentally. My backup the night before I switched phones was only 127 GB.

I have faced the same issue with my iPhone 13 Pro and after the iOS update, I tend to see 80 GB of System Data eating up the storage of my phone.


Have worked around all the possible ways to get rid of this space and still managed to see the same.


I then came around with this article and tried the methods and eventually I don't know how but it worked for me.


I hope it helps!
