I didn't have this issue in beta 1. Ever since i upgraded my iPad to beta 2 via OTA update, my other section has been growing like crazy! In 2 hours it went from 1.26GB to 1.28GB. I have checked usage statistics in settings but no app seems to have a large amount of documents and data. Anyone know the reason or the fix? Anyone else experiencing this? Hard reset did not fix the issue.
 
Hmmm. A doctor, perhaps? Growth of your other section isn't something we're really used to dealing with here.

Click to expand...

Betas tend to have a lot of console logging on.
 
The "Other" category tends to expand when the device is downloading and preparing an OTA update. Once the update is completed and th device is synced with iTunes again, the "Other" data should return to normal.

On my 4S, the OTA for beta 2 led to 1.43GB of "Other" showing in iTunes. Upon the update being completed, this returned to the normal 0.61GB of "Other" data.
 
There aren't enough iKnob jokes around, if you ask me.

Oh... you didn't.
