How to remove documents and data in iPhone 5?

Before it was "Others" that was taking up so many spaces.  After upgrading to iOS7, it is now "Documents & Data" that's taking up 8.86 GB of space.  How to fix with out downloading 3rd party app?

    Document & Data on iPhone is junks files including browser history, cookies, logs, caches of photos and videos, database files stored by your apps. You’ll notice that some apps while being very small themselves have accumulated a lot of data. An example of this is shown in the image below, you see that the Facebook app is 109 MB whereas the Documents & Data stored is 1.2 GB. This 1.2 GB is what goes into your “Other” data.
    These apps on iPhone don’t provide a way to delete Documents and Data, uninstalling and reinstalling the app is not the best option here. With the help of CleanMyPhone or PhoneClean you can delete the documents and data on iPhone without deleting the app itself.

  • REMOVE Documents and Data... HOW!?

    No, seriously... HOW.
    I have tried every **** thing I could find via a google search, and I've read countless threads with countless "well, it worked for me" stories. Nothing is fixing it. I have done everything except a master reset. I have gone to icloud.com and reset D&D, I have done it through my Mac system preferences, I have managed icloud settings via my iphone, I've erased all texts and emails. Heck I deleted an email account on my phone! Nothing changed. NOTHING.
    I still have 2.7GB being taken up by D&D. My iPhone4 is only 16GB, and the majority of my space (~8 or 9GB) goes to music. According to my icloud usage, I have 5GB of 5GB. I've turned off icloud and deleted the account off my phone, and deleted apps where I could. It's gotten really frustrating that I can't take a photo or update my phone with out deleting photos or music first, (I know, I know... first world problems). I only have about 30 photos on my phone, too. No videos. No voice memos, no voice mails... I just don't want to do a master reset and lose everything since I read somewhere that if you do a backup, it'll just slap the D&D right back on there. It would just be really sweet to get those 2.7GB back, but I feel like it is a lost cause since there is no real answer. I know apple support just posted a how to about a week ago for this, but I tried both methods. I tried restarting my phone. I tried backing it up again. I tried syncing it. Nothing.
    Is anyone just as frustrated as I am?! And is there ANYONE that has a solid answer?

    Documents & Data contains... well, documents and data that are being stored/used by the apps on your phone. The only way to get rid of it is to delete the documents/data from the apps that are storing it there or delete the apps that are doing so entirely.
    If you go to Settings>General>Usage, you can see exactly how much space each app on your phone is using. If you tap on the individual app you will see details of how much each is using in documents & data.

  • How to delete documents and data from your iphone

    iphone 5s has a lot of things listed in "documents and data" section- and in the "other" section of itunes when updating phone- is there a way to know what is on there so i can delete it?  itunes does not give more information...

    These are 2 different things and have to be address 2 different ways.
    The other, that shows up in iTunes on the bar is memory the device is not recovering, for what every reason.
      To reclaim that you need to wipe the iPhone and setup as new.
    The Documents and Data in the iCloud storage.
      Tap the Doc or data type
      then swipe right to left on the data and press delete

  • Will documents and data in iphone increase until storage becomes full?

    iphone documents and data size

    You need to go over the scenario in more detail.
    Which iPhone do you have?  Which version of ios do you have?
    There is not auto delete.  Stuff stays around until you delete it.
    The largest items are videos followed by pictures.
    I'm lazy.  I wait til things fill up then delete some apps I have not used in a long time.

  • Documents and Data on iPhone

    I am trying to make more room on my iPhone.  I've gone through all my apps and can't find one that would store documents or data.  Is there a way to find out what is occupying this space?  I've gone through and practically shut off every other sync category.  Thanks!

    I have this same issue.  I had to restore my NEW iphone 6 to factory settings yesterday and upgrade to 8.2 after having issues with syncing  in itunes (and an explosion in my "other' category of 28gb). And after three hours on the phone with Apple I still cannot sync (128 gb phone and cannot load my music)!  I did however go into my Icloud settings this morning and turned off "documents and data" for my backup and now the whole line item option is not even in the menu anymore it has completely disappeared.  It seems every day brings a new issue!  Not liking my new phone  I do not want to hear one more person tell me to restore!  I simply did not pay all this money to have to restore everytime I make a change to my iphone!!!!  Oh and I also have NOT upgraded to iCloud drive.

  • Cannot find icloud documents and data on iphone 6

    I have NOT upgraded to iCloud drive. I went into my settings to use documents and data as I have a few apps that need to sync. The option is not present on the menu anymore.

  • How to delete documents and data?

    iBooks is taking up space on my phone yet I have no books dosnloaded.  Why? And how do I delete?

    One way to do this for all of your apps is to connected the iPod to iTunes and restore it to factory settings versus restoring from a previous backup.
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
    Otherwise, you'll need check each app to determine if they have a way of deleting/removing it's app specific data.

  • What is documents and data in storage?

    My iPhone 4S has been threatening with being full for ages and I just don't have that much stuff on it. Photos, videos, apps, and music all account for less than half of the 16gb space on the phone. When I plugged it in to back up my files (since it just deleted ALL of my contacts over night), it is showing that over half of the storage space is being taken up by "documents and data" - anyone know what this is? I need to delete most of it to clear room for more photos!

    Do you mean from your iPhone?
    Documents & Data are not taking up any space in iTunes.Delete some apps.
    Select the iPhone in iTunes and remove the apps.
    Or on the iPhone, Settings > General > Usage.
    THis will show how mach space each app and its data is using. You can delete them here.

  • What is documents and data and how do I remove it?

    When I updated my phone I noticed documents and took up a lot of space. What is it and how do I remove that?

    I made some significant discoveries on the Documents and Data battle last night and wanted to share.
    1) Turning off Documents & Data made no difference in the 4.7GB chunk of mystery space being used up by D&D on my iPhone 4S.
    2) Removing Texts did help, but I was still left with 4.1GB of mystery space. I had one text message with my son in the USAF that had lots of videos and pictures. I made sure to save them to my Camera Roll before deleting. But that one text was over .5GB. So Texts matter.
    3) Backing up and Restoring just my Settings did not eliminate any of that 4.1GB.
    4) Reseting my phone as a new phone initially did, until I added my two email accounts.
    JACKPOT.
    5) My Gmail account, upon extensive review, retains all the same folders on my phone as it does in my Gmail account on the computer (which I've never once visited). I looked in each folder until I came across one that said All Mail...containing 830 emails that date back to the establishment of that email address in the summer of 2012. On my phone there is no option to delete those, other than the painful process of going Edit>Tap>Tap>Tap>Tap>Scroll>Tap>Tap...830 times. I logged onto my Gmail account on the my computer, visited the All Mail folder, did a mass delete (100 items at a time) and then emptied the Trash
    6) All 830 items were still on my iphone and were not budging without individually being deleted and I couldn't find a Sync with Gmail type option, so I deleted the Gmail account and then added it back to my phone immediately.
    BOOM - Docments and Data went to 60.1MB. 
    The good news is that if you have a Gmail account and need to fish out an old email, you probably can. You have to work at it to make them go away. I had one come in this morning and had to flush it through my Inbox, the All Mail and then the Trash to get rid of it. I've opted to instead use the Gmail app for that account to save me this drama again.
    I also use an iPad and through the cloud, had duplicates of ALL my text messages and the gmail account. Which explains the 'your storage is almost full' messages I've  been fighting.
    I am happily restoring all my music and plan to spend today in an 80s music haze. I hope this helps someone.
    Good luck to all.

  • I turned off documents and data in my iCloud setting on my iPhone. How do I turn it back on?

    I turned off "documents and data" from my iCloud settings on
    my iPhone. How do I turn it back on?

    If you're running iOS 8, it's on by default and you don't have the option to turn it off.  You can confirm that it's on by checking Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage and make sure you see your apps are listed under the Documents & Data setting.  (It will only list apps that sync documents & data with iCloud.)
