Disk % Full

I recently had to reset some of the student ipads to assign a new profile and update them to the newest iOS.. After doing so, a lot of the ipads now have an almost full disk space. The students are only allotted 3gb and each ipad has only one user on it.. Any idea of what is consuming all of the disk space?

Kind of a big deal

Are these iPads 32 GB? I've noticed that the iPadOS size creep is real and taking a large chunk of that.

 

Also are you pushing out a set of apps to all iPads? Those can add up quickly. I try to limit my initial install of apps to an iPad to a minimum and having people download needed apps through the Meraki App.

Yes they are 32gb ipads. Each of these ipads have an associated tag for the specific school, so when I tag it, a handful of them are pushed out. These are also pushed out to other 32gb ipads that have 17.5 iOS and they are only at like 40% used disc space.

Once I can physically look at one of these ipads tomorrow, i will check the storage usage if it allows me, but I just could not understand why it was consuming so much.

Most likely OS and any apps you have installed are filling up the devices. I would review what apps you are installing and go from there.
