Why Twitter Uses So Much Storage on iPhone 16 Pro Max
Twitter typically uses 500MB-2GB of cache and data on your iPhone 16 Pro Max. Twitter/X caches timelines, images, and video previews.
Unlike photos you take with your camera, app cache builds up invisibly. You may not realize Twitter is consuming gigabytes of your iPhone 16 Pro Max storage until you check Settings.
What Twitter Stores on Your iPhone 16 Pro Max
- Cached media — Images and videos you viewed are saved locally for faster loading
- Downloaded content — Offline content and saved posts take real storage space
- App data — Login info, preferences, and usage history
- Temporary files — Processing files that should be cleaned up but often are not
