I hit 355 GB of system data on iOS 26 last week on my 15 pro max. Factory reset and restore from backup and it accumulates 5GB a day. Will be there again soon.

There is something seriously wrong with system data in iOS 26.

I feel like this is leaking into macOS Sequoia updates as well. Disk space just keeps getting eaten up quickly and I’m scrambling to clear up some space on a MacBook Pro with a large disk and lots of RAM. I know I should reduce user data (like the documents, photos and videos I’ve stored), but something doesn’t seem right in how more and more disk space keeps getting used.
