What is the best way to free up storage space on an IPhone? - 1

Eliminate apps you don't use, backup photos/videos and delete them off the phone, erase old emails and messages, and delete music you don't listen to. Then in your Photos app, look for the Recently Deleted album and erase the pictures from there. Then… Restart your phone (hold down Sleep/Wake button and Home button at same time for about 6 seconds), which will get rid of temporary files.

Delete some apps, or move them to an SD card. You should also move photos videos and music to an SD card.

Common sense will tell you that you have to delete stuff.

Clear out media (music, videos, pictures) as well as unused apps.

  • Why is my iPhone storage space used so high? I have a 16GB iPhone 4s. I have no songs or videos on it. I have about 32 apps and 500 pictures. My storage space used is at 13.2 GB. Why is that so high? That is almost all of my available data? How can I bring this down? I have a friend with the same phone, same number of pictures and about the same number of apps (maybe a few less) and his storage is only about 4GB used.

I don't put any musics in it. I only use my phone for communication and social media and gallery as well. Anyone know well about ios and iphone, your help is very appreciative.
  • What to do about my iphone storage saying I'm using up way more photo storage than I actually am? My storage says I have 132 photos that's using up most of my storage; almost 3 GB. I have only 52 photos and 15 videos in my phone. It seems like it may be using storage from pictures I deleted, but apparently they're still using space? ? Has this happened to anyone else. I've taken my phone to an apple store, and I didn't get any answers.
