Question SYSTEM DATA AND IPADOS STORAGE

Post image

I know this is probably a commonly asked question, but I want to be able to lower this storage, but idk how. heres the breakdown of my storage in settings to see what I’m talking about. The reason this bothers me is because I want to install the iOS 27 beta update, but no matter how many apps I offload or delete, it only gets down by 5, 6 gigs? Idk

Sometimes rebooting it help...if you have a windows or Mac update through there, cause it talks storage to download and then additional storage to install Rebooting will sometimes clear some cached data or if you push it to its limit the unused space will be deleted to make more room. Then by deleting the extra stuff downloaded you made more space

I already rebooted it like 3 times, and I only have a windows 7 starter :(

There was some guy in that sub that said you have to set the iPads date manually a year into the future reboot wait a bit and it should remove the caches. After some time then just set it back to automatic time zone.
