My storage is nearly full. My apps, photos and such are minimal. However, the category “Other” is huge. What is “Other”, and how do I clean it out?

Other is a collection of system and temporary files that over time can grow. The best way to reduce other is to backup your iPad, then restore it from backup.


You can do a restore from iCloud or from using your computer and iTunes.
