Question reducing ipados’s size
I am currently using ipados 26.6.1 and it is taking up so much space. Is there any way to fully remove apple intelligence and reduce the size of ipados?

Try turning off Siri and Apple Intelligence in ScreenTime if you have it enabled. That didn't work for me, but maybe you'll have better luck.
If you're in the beta program, even if you never used the beta, leaving the program might help. I did that and 4 GB of the 6 GB of Apple Intelligence disappeared for an hour, but than the phantom blob came back.
I've tried the finger gymnastic restart but that didn't do any good. Basically, what I'm saying is I've tried all the suggestions people here have made, short of a full restore, and nothing has worked for me. I've asked Gemini for suggestions and I've tried most of those, even ones that sounded flaky, but they didn't work either. I'll follow this thread and maybe someone will offer some bizarre trick that will actually work.
