I have too much system data that I can't seem to delete it. (I know I can backup and restore it but I'm holding off on that option) I'm planning to use the Quick Start option when my new phone arrives.
Will it transfer that system data? I have 28gb and it grows every time I delete an app..
iPhone 12, iOS 18
No. System data is not transferred over quick start.
System Data however is a mess of stuff including recently deleted items which usually get cleared out after a while. Which is why immediately upon deleting something the actual available stranger may not increase. It takes a while for the iOS cleanup process to go through that and clear it. Usually a restart of the iPhone can make this happen as it clears unused temp data during start up, which can include the recently deleted items.
Try restarting the iPhone, (not restoring) and should clear out a chunk of system data.
