Low on iPhone Storage Space? Do This Instead of Deleting Your Apps and Photos
Certainly! If you’re running low on iPhone storage space, there are some smart alternatives to simply deleting apps and photos. Let’s explore a few options:
-
Offload Unused Apps:
- Go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage.
- Tap “Offload Unused Apps”. This feature automatically removes apps you haven’t used recently but keeps their data intact. If you ever need the app again, it’ll re-download from the App Store1.
-
Optimize Photo Storage:
- Open Settings.
- Scroll down to Photos.
- Make sure “Optimize iPhone Storage” is enabled. This stores full-resolution photos and videos in iCloud, freeing up local space2.
-
Use Cloud Storage Services:
- Consider using services like iCloud, Google Drive, or Dropbox to store files, photos, and videos off-device. This way, you can access them when needed without taking up precious space
