Is your device running out of storage because of Apple Intelligence? If you’ve disabled this feature but still find that it’s taking up precious space, there’s a simple way to remove it along with its cache. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you reclaim that storage efficiently!

Step 1: Check Storage Usage

Before making any changes, it’s good to have an overview of your storage. Go to your device’s settings and look for the storage section. Here, you can see how much space is being used by different apps, including Apple Intelligence.

Since you mentioned that you’ve already disabled Apple Intelligence, double-check one more time:

Open the Settings app.
Scroll down and tap Privacy & Security.
Locate Apple Intelligence and ensure it’s turned off.

Step 3: Clear Cache and Data

Now that the feature is disabled, you can clear what’s left of its data. Here’s how:

Go back to the Settings app.
Tap on General and then select iPhone Storage (or iPad Storage).
Find Apple Intelligence in the list of apps.
Tap on it and choose the option to Delete App. This action removes the app and any remaining cached data.

Step 4: Restart Your Device

Once you’ve uninstalled the app, it’s a good idea to restart your device. This helps refresh the system and ensures that any lingering caches are cleared.

Step 5: Empty Your Trash/Recently Deleted Items

In case there are any leftover files in your recently deleted items, it’s worth checking:

Open the Files app.
Go to the Recently Deleted section.
Select any files related to Apple Intelligence and tap Delete to clear them out completely.

Step 6: Verify Storage Space

Finally, return to the storage settings to see how much space you’ve freed up. You should notice a significant increase in available storage!

By following these simple steps, you can completely remove Apple Intelligence and reclaim valuable storage on your device. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out. Enjoy your newly freed-up space!
