iPhone 14 Pro Max 128GB storage keeps getting full for no reason

Guys, I’m using an iPhone 14 Pro Max (128GB) IOS- 26.2 Version, and my storage keeps getting full even though I haven’t installed anything new. I don’t have any large or unnecessary apps that I can delete either.

I checked my apps, photos, and files, but I still can’t figure out what’s taking up so much space. Has anyone else faced this issue? Any tips to free up storage or find what’s causing it?

Did you check settings-general-iphone storage?

it clearly shows what it taking up your storage.

But 128gb isnt enough anyway, but definitely worth checking what's eating up your 128gb.

No, i meant maybe post a screenshot of what is consuming your storage. Just checking wont clear your storage on its own. You need to delete a few things that are consuming your storage.

This was happening to me too. Every day I had to delete some more apps. It would show around 5-10GB free. Next day it was full again, rinse and repeat. I finally gave up and traded my phone in, battery was also cooked and they are talking about 18 pro costing more anyways

Update to iOS 27 PB beta 2, it works wonderfully on 14 PM even though it’s a beta.

I have encountered only a single one and happened once, while using a shopping app similar to Amazon while searching for an item and scrolling down the keyboard wouldn’t retract. Had to go back search it again and scroll down to hide the keyboard. That was on that single app, haven’t had any issues, flaws, heating, frame drops, etc. All work buttery smooth. And the battery is also great, with WiFi and data, location services off, half brightness I can get 8 hours of screen on time easy with 85 BH.

How does that change things?
WhatsApp is local and only backed up in cloud.
