How to get rid of other on iPhone?
Every time I plug my iPhone in to my computer, in the capacity section it says that nearly 2GB is occupied by something called "Other." Everywhere I look says to restore my phone. However, I have done that several times and it never goes away. Anyone know how to fix it?
I think it's just the apps that come with the phone, your contacts, your texts, your notes, and the software version that you are running. I'm not 100% sure though. I restored my phone and once i got my contacts back, the "Other" category got bigger. It is there when you get a brand new iphone too.

- I'm trying to get rid of Other on iPhone 5? I know this is a tired question because no one can figure out how to truly remove the (5GB in my case) excess of "other" on the iPhone because it apparently might be due to corrupted files. I've tried everything I can find online to no avail. I really don't want to resolve to starting a new phone because I need my current photos, contacts and messages. Any suggestions?
- How to get rid of the other category in my iPhone's usage The "other" section is currently taking up 7.5GB of my iPhone's capacity (so ridiculous)! I've tried everything: deleting contacts, deleting conversations, deleting apps, and even RESTORING MY IPHONE. But it still is taking up basically half of my usage! Please someone tell me how I can get rid of, or at least drastically reduce, the "other" section.
