    How much storage space is “System Data” taking up on your iPhone?

    Before I watch (maybe you cover this), I find a ton of data in photos/videos within Messages. It's a long process to go thru and delete all of these. Maybe there's an easier way? Hint hint… 😊

    I’ve 20 gb n it’s 19 after this 😢 i wish I could get rid of it somehow

    @12:00 – I have to do that a lot because system data keeps eating up so much memory on my phone. Either I have restore as a new phone, but using a saved backup or just restore as a brand new phone. It is ridiculous.

    i like my history. i forget things the phone remembers.

  6. I have a 14 promax, and it doesn’t allow me to slide left and delete the voices I don’t use. Any workaround? Thanks so much for all this great information!💜

    What’s a number that’s okay for system data? Mines 12.23. I feel like that’s a good number to be at.

    So I am finding out that a lot of this does not apply to me being an iPhone 8+ user. I don't have most of these features.

    I don’t understand what to do when it comes to steps regarding a mac? I got a pc so?

    My iphone 12 pro max forces you to download each voice before it gives you the option to delete. Does that mean all or just the data for the voice itself.

  11. Open Mic

    Apple needs to figure out a way to save Messages. Many people want to keep family and friend text chains. Just let the user download them to a computer or hard drive and empty Messages! Mine is a major part of my storage.

    Hi Guys – thank you both for this channel! A while back, you showed a vid about turning on a small screen control that one could easily scoot around to shift its location. This widget controls Live Captions and the Mic. I want to turn this feature off but can't recall how to do this. HELP!!

    I am not able to sync my iPhone to my laptop…

    Thanks a lot… brought a phone with more storage 🤮

    If you change your setting to delete messages after 30 days, does it affect the message app on your imac. It seems to be independent, but some messages I would want to keep longer then 30 days.

    Google Translate Downloaded Languages show up in system data. Not in Google translate. Delete them. Then you’ll regain storage from system data.

    I also noticed that permanently deleting videos and photos from the recently deleted tab in gallery can clear a lot of space from system data

    Great stuff guys always great videos thank you

    Xcode would not download on my 2020 MacBook air, it got stuck on "installing". Also, on my iPhone 11 with the latest updates, I am unable to delete voices.

  21. Gavin Turnbull

    My iOS 14.6 doesn't let me delete voices, there's an iCloud icon and the size, but zero clarity if the size taken on the phone or on the iCloud, swiping does nothing.

  22. Dwayne T

    Best way is stay away from any apple products simple right

  23. J J

    Hack no 5: somehow I am not able to delete the voices. Swipping doesn't trigger the delete button. Any idea?

  24. SI Ison

    Great information but y’all talk to fast. But I just roll you back. Thanks for sharing with us.👍

    I have deleted 30gb of data on my phone from photos, but photos app is still occupying 30gb space.

    Last month I had 113gb system data on phone, and had to do a factory reset, but it’s not possible to do a reset every other month.
