Low Storage Space on iPad Air 2

These support pages should prove to be helpful with management of storage on your iPad; the final link should be of particular interest:

What's the difference between device storage and iCloud storage? – Apple Support

Manage your iCloud storage – Apple Support

How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch – Apple Support

Clear Other storage on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

Respectfully. That is not Very Acceptable. Being Very Wasteful of a very usable device that is far from Good Usable Service.

There should be a suitable way to have System Restore.. Completely Delete All Files from the iPad Air2 or any other iPad or iPhone..

Irrespective of What Version of iOS is To Be.Installed

Many Faithful Mac Users have Low Storage Units for various Reasons.

A Suitable Correction to this Fault Would be Appreciated.

Thank You

Hi 👋

How much System Data do you have?

Sometimes iPads accumulate a lot of caché, that can be deleted. When I have a lot of System Data I reset my iPad, deleting everything, I have iCloud, so my Photos, mails, messages, calendars, etc. are safe.

You can find your System Data in: Settings > General > iPad Storage > System Data (Is at the bottom)

And you can reset your iPad in: Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPad > Reset.

I hope it heps 😊

I don't think you can really do so if it's on the latest iOS, especially with 16 GB. That thing has had the most amount of years of updates.
