Hey everyone,

I got me new iPhone 13 pro max last week, and I noticed that the system data is 15.29 GB!!

Is there something to do to solve this problem?

Thank you in advance!

It is normal to see the system information fluctuate. I don't believe my phone hit 15GB on IOS 15 yet but I believe I have seen something like this with IOS 14. As long as it is not causing storage issues(Full), I would not worry so much. I remember reading some time in the past that if you sync the phone with either iTunes(PC) or Finder(Mac), it would lower that value.

Something strange happened.

When I trued off the iCloud Drive on iCloud the the System Date became zero KB

Interesting, not something I have done but maybe either a bug, or when you have icloud drive enabled, there is a lot of caching or something going on. If you don't mind me asking, do you know how much you have on your icloud drive in terms of actual file size? If it is close to 15, then it is probably those files locally downloaded. I believe that is what icloud drive does, at least it seems that way on my end.

The iCloud Drive folder on iCloud.com is empty. I really don't know what's wrong :/
