Appreciate I load it at my own risk but..it’s an I phone 7 plus with 32gb is storage so it’s always going to be difficult to manage space. I went to load IOS 14 and was left with less than a go of space despite sitting at perhaps 26gb used. Removed all apps making little difference and then reset back to factory default. Great tons on space, within 20 minutes I was back to 2gb free. See attachment.
Going to reset again.

How many apps do you have installed, altogether?
I have only installed the RBS banking app and Firefox focus, the private browser, nothing else except the stock apple apps and not all of them (25 in total). The "other" section of the storage just keeps growing like crazy.

This has been a fairly common issue in iOS 14. However they seemed to have gotten it under control since beta 3. Hadn’t seen any new reports of this in several weeks until yours. Are you running beta 4? If so, did you upgrade directly to that beta from iOS 13?

A new beta is expected today (most likely). Hopefully that fixes things for you.

Thanks, I was on the beta 13 before moving to 14. Up to 22gb at the mo with nothing installed and 14gb of other.
