IPhone, storage almost full warning?

I've deleted all but 2 of my apps, all my photos and videos, and have cleared all my messages, emails, etc. Why is it still saying almost full? There's nearly nothing on here. Any fixes for this?

Plug it into iTunes. See what it tells you there. Usually it has them in categories based on colors. If you hover over it, it tells you how much ____ you have and how much memory it's using (example 500 songs using 2gb). If it's the OTHER section I would restart the phone. Holding the power and home button until the screen goes black then releasing. If it still doesn't work. I would restore the iPhone to factory settings. Make sure to have a backup!

Edit: what iPhone do you have and what iOS version? I had similar problems and even some friends. They had this when using older iPhones upgrading to a newer iOS version.

Could try checking the Usage section in Settings to get a better idea of the cause. Also could try desktop apps like Phone Clean

U a dumb *****

Well, if you've removed all that, it's the perfect opportunity to do a factory reset. Lucky.

  • Storage almost full on iPhone 5? I got an iPhone 5 for Christmas and after the most recent update I've been receiving a message that says 'Storage Almost Full, manage your storage in Settings'. I have a little over 200 pictures and 300 songs, and the biggest app I have is Instagram. I share an iTunes account with my mom and my younger sister, could that be the reason that my storage is almost full?
