Apple’s iOS 18.1 Beta 3 has introduced several updates, but the Clean Up feature continues to face challenges. Designed to help users manage storage by automatically removing unnecessary files, the tool has yet to deliver consistent results, according to beta testers.
Many users have reported that the Clean Up feature isn’t effectively clearing out files, with large amounts of unnecessary data still remaining on their devices. In some instances, the tool has even misidentified important files as disposable, raising concerns about the potential for accidental data loss.

Another common complaint is the tool’s sluggish performance, with some users experiencing delays or incomplete clean-up processes. These issues have left many frustrated, especially those hoping to free up storage space on their devices.
Despite Apple acknowledging similar problems in earlier beta versions, it appears that the Clean Up feature is still not functioning as intended in Beta 3. With the official iOS 18.1 release on the horizon, users are eager for improvements that will make the feature more reliable and efficient.
In the meantime, beta users may need to continue managing storage manually or using third-party apps until Apple resolves these issues in future updates.
