iPhone backup size is 4gb of available 5gb

Why would my iPhone back up be 4gb when I have only have my iCloud Drive (6.6mb) and photos (136.1mb) included to back up?

iPhone 12, iOS 16

Hi there Lsorgini,


To view all the content that's being backed up to iCloud and to find specific information about what's included in a specific backup, you'll want to take a closer look at it with these steps:


On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
1. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud.
2. Tap Manage Account Storage, then tap Backups.
3. Tap a backup to see more details about it, choose which information to back up, or delete the backup.

You'll find this information here: Locate backups of your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


Take care.
