Just realized that Health app is using about 4Gb of data on iCloud storage. I found several topics which explain how to drop all data, e.g., all Sleep data or all Steps data. But I'm looking for a way to understand what samples are using more space and drop only old samples. Are there any way to do that?

4. Tap Show All Data, then tap Edit in the upper-right corner.
5. Tap the Delete button next to the record you want to delete. You can also tap Delete All to delete every record.

3. Under Features, tap Health Records.
