I have a solution to try that seemed to work for dozens of people. Go to Settings > Scroll down to Apps > App Store > Scroll down to Offload Unused Apps and turn it on. Then Force Restart your iPhone. Once turned back on turn it off. Force Restart your iPhone again.
Force Restart procedure iPhone:
If that doesn’t work go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Drive > Turn it off, Force Restart your iPhone, then turn it back on.
I tried that already, it just still wouldn’t work
**Update it finally worked, now iCloud is at 188kb
appreciated thank you,
iCloud taking too much iPhone storage
