Hi,

I got new iPad mini ios 16.1 a week ago and now noticed Photos taking up 77gb in iPadstorage. I deleted everything including emptying trash folders and tried every method I could think of to clear the data including restarting or enabling/disabling icloud photo backup. This has happened before with iPhone 12 on ios 15. I am using Lightroom mobile and deleted all files there too including emptying the trash. No apps are taking significant amount of storage.

In iPad storage also noticed system data is taking 13.5gb. How do you clear this?

I have 256gb ipad and want to keep it clean.
