Extremely high system data on iPhone storage Hi, I just got a 1TB iPhone 14 Pro Max. My iPhone storage keeps maxing out because it is showing that system data is around 900+GB. The iPhone barely has 70GB file and App data. So I don’t understand what is causing this extremely high system data. It clears up if I restart the phone. But it seems to be happening (maxing out) on a daily basis.

Iphone 14 Pro System data changes from 12GB to over 60. Any theories? So I have a 128 GB Iphone 14 pro. The other day, looking at storage, over 60gb was under "Other System Data." I did the usual. Deleted old messages, clear safari, etc. It did nothing to change it. So I turned the phone off and restarted it. When it came back on, System data was down to 12gb. Then again today, it changed to over 60gb. Again, I shut the phone down, and once it restarted, system data was once again at 12gb. Anyone encounter this issue before, even on previous models? If so or not, what are your thoughts, theories or suggestions for fixing this?

System Data Ever since I have had my iPhone 14 Max Pro 256gb I have had issues with my system data being excessive. I have found if I turn my phone off it goes down but always increases over the day. Is there something I can do to stop it?
