After Updating to IOS 17 Phone app is using high internal storage.

After updating the IPhone to IOS 17 I could see the phone app is consuming the internal storage too high.


When I view the contact which has the contact poster and if i view 10 to 11 contacts and then see the storage it increases by 90 to 100 mb..

So I am not making any new call not adding any new contact poster not creating any new contact just view the contact details who has the contact poster are view any other contacts then the storage increases for phone app..


Each time I use phone app the storage increases and on the same issue I have spoken with apple support team and they have suggested me to do the reset of the Iphone and I did that, after resetting my device the issue was coming back again, so apple support person said this could be a bug and this might take longer time to get be resolved and they will be in touch with me.


But on my day to day use I will use my phone app extensively and I am afraid this will consume my complete IPhone storage after 2 to 3 weeks.


Is the there any one who is facing this issue and any resolution steps if some can share will be helpful.


iPhone 13, iOS 17

Yep, i am also experiencing the same issue. Same here reset the phone, restored after and the phone app is 2gb. I heard from couple of friends that their phone app is also taking more storage. My second phone is on ios 16 and the phone app is 100mb.
