Why does my music take up so much room on my iPhone?
I've been recently frustrated with how little space my iPhone had left considering how much content I have on my phone (2200 songs at 17.9GB, 1200 pictures at 4.6GB, 29 apps at 3.02GB, etc.). I compared it to my sister's identical iPhone, which has much of the same content. However, her phone has 2100 songs at 8.8GB, 3700 at 3.4GB and 46 apps at 3.4GB. Much of her music was downloaded directly from my MacBook. Why is my phone so full while hers still hasn't reached half-capacity?
Her music was probably convered to 128kbps AAC audio, which is a lot smaller than the regular file. The only downside is that the music quality sounds awful.
- Why does some of the photos that I take with my iPhone 6 so much bigger than the other photos? I didn't change any of the settings in my phone as I have been taking one photo after the other. I don't think it is a burst shot either because I do not hold the capture button for long. So I'm expecting all photos to be relatively the same. Some photos even reached 200MB! I'm puzzled atm…
- Why does my photos on my Iphone take up so much memory? I had about 500 photos and it was 6.0GB, then i literally deleted all except 4 of my photos. So I have 4 photos and its 5.2 GB?! Please Help ME FIX THIS it takes up all my memory, by the way i have a 16GB IPhone 5, Thanks!
- Why does my music take up so much memory? I have 275 songs. 1.8 gigs. Why do the songs take up almost 2 gigs? What ever happen to "1 gigabyte holds 1000 songs?" I have an iphone 4 synced with an iTunes account.
- Why does my Messages app on my iPhone take up so much space? I have an iPhone 5 on iOS 7. I've deleted all except 3 of my messages, yet it is taking up 1.3 GB of my phone's space. Why is it taking up so much space and how do I fix it?
