My iPhone storage of (128 GB) is almost full, and the thing that is taking most of the space is my system data (39 GB)
I have tried to clear up all cache from my apps and resetting my phone constantly but the system storage bar always stays the same. Is there any thing I can do to free up my system data?

Original Title: System data Storage
iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 26
there is only one way to get system data back down to 6GB or so…
Back up the phone, Erase all content & settings, Set up the phone again, restoring the backup.
Resources:
Back up iPhone - Apple Support
Set up your iPhone or iPad – Apple Support (UK)
Then add back credit cards, sign back into accounts etc.
