My Apple maps has been taking up a lot of storage. It went from 2GB to 5GB and now it is 11GB. I do not have anything on maps as I do not use it. When I deleted the app, it still shows 11GB for documents and data and the storage is still expanding which is taking most of my phone storage. Pls help me with this issue. Thanks

However, it's always a good practice to double-check your downloaded maps after reinstalling any app. You can find them under the Offline Maps section within the Apple Maps app itself.
