iCloud storage My iCloud says messages are taking up 13gb of storage however when I click top conservations it’s only taking up 200 mb. I’ve looked this up multiple times and still can’t find an answer. I’ve also deleted half my messages already to try and fix it and doesn’t do anything

Messages taking up significant icloud storage Messages is taking up 25.1GB of storage in my iCloud. I've deleted almost all of my text conversations and the amount of storage it's using hasn't decreased at all. I can no longer save anything to icloud because my messages are taking up so much space. If i've deleted all of my text conversations why is it still taking up so much space?
