Many iPhone owners complain that, in the course of using this device, the storage on “System Data” grows exaggeratedly. More recently, this problem has affected devices with the iOS 17 installed.
The amount of storage used by this area can be seen by opening Settings and going to General » Storage do iPhone.
If you are going through this type of situation, we have listed below some tips that can, in part, improve this a little — and free up space on your device.

- Simply restarting your iPhone can help free up some MBs (megabytes). On iPhones with Touch ID, press and hold the side button until the slider appears; then drag it. On models with Face ID, press and hold one of the volume buttons and the side button (at the same time); then drag the slider.
- Clear cached files in Safari. Open Settings and tap “Safari”. Then, select “Clear History and Website Data” and confirm with “Clear History”.
- Restore your iPhone to factory settings and then “pull” the backup made via iCloud or using a PC/Mac to return your data to the device.
- Change the period for which message history is kept on your device to “1 Year” or “30 Days”. To do this, open Settings, tap “Messages” and go to “Keep Messages”.
- There are apps that can help free up space on your device. A recently launched example is CleanMyPhone, from MacPaw.
Even though these tips don’t solve 100% of the problem, they can help reduce the size of the system’s data.
