I've been experiencing a problem with my iPhone storage related to my photos app. How can I fix this?

It's been this way for a while. I only have 29 photos, none of them are high quality, but no matter what I do, my photos app says that the documents & data take up 308.1 MB. Since it says that, I can't fit much on my phone. I'm very low on storage and I'm desperate to fix this problem. I've tried everything you can find with a simple google search and a bit more looking. I downloaded iExplorer, that didn't work. Nothing is working. I don't get why these issues are still a thing, not only that but when I hook my phone up to my PC, iTunes says I have 4 GB free, except I don't, and when I try to sync more to my phone it says I can't fit anything. 4 GB basically means 0 GB, but that's not the problem I'm focusing on at the moment, I just want more storage. Please somebody help, this is really inconvenient and it stresses me out.

308.1 MB is nothing in the grand scheme of things. Even if you got rid of it, it's not going to change the fundamental space problem you have. A 16gb iPhone doesn't have any room for music, maybe only a handful of apps. The rest is taken up by Apple. Apple sold a bunch of cheap 16gb phones to suckers well knowing they would be forced to upgrade eventually because of storage problems.

You need to get rid of some apps, delete old texts and emails, delete old documents associated with apps you still use, delete all photos from your "Recently Deleted" album, and offload your photos and videos to a free service such as Google Photos.

  • Your broadband modem is experiencing connectivity issues? My wireless works fine with my iPad and iPhones. But then I try to connect it to my Windows 7 desktop, and it says that it's experiencing connectivity issues? I have the Ethernet cable hooked up to the main router, then my wireless, then into the computer. I've tried restarting them both at the same time, but it's still having the same issue?
  • Would i have Legal issues if i named my iPhone app the same as a current product non-gaming related? Apparently, the name of my iPhone game is the same as a book written by a non-famous author, the book is about super hero's. My game is not about super hero's. Also, when i search google images, the name of my game shows up as the vehicle, Jaguar's icon. Would i have a legal issue to name my game the same as a book and a google image that shows up as Jaguar's icon?

  • My iPhone has been experiencing this glitch? So this started a couple of weeks ago and it has been seriously impeding my ability to use it. It comes and goes randomly, lasting from 30 seconds to 12 hours, which can be a major inconvenience. And yes, I have restarted it multiples times during an occurrence, but to no avail.
