If this is something you’re dealing with, keep on reading to learn how to free up space on your iPhone.

How to check your iPhone’s remaining storage space

When it comes to managing your iPhone efficiently, one of the most critical aspects is monitoring your device’s storage space. Understanding how much space is available and how it’s being used can ensure that you have ample room for new photos, apps, and more. Here’s how you can easily check your iPhone’s remaining storage space:

1. Open the “Settings” app on your iPhone.
2. Scroll down and tap on “General.”
3. Select “iPhone Storage”.
   
   In the “iPhone Storage” section, you’ll see a clear, color-coded breakdown of your device’s storage usage, including the total amount of storage, the space used, and the space available. Different categories like Apps, Photos, Messages, and more are displayed, showing how much space each one occupies.

So, if you’ve received the “Storage Almost Full” message on your iPhone, it’s from here that you’ll be able to figure out exactly what it is that’s taking up that space.

Storage optimization recommendations

In the “iPhone Storage” section, you may also see recommendations for storage optimizations. If you see any recommendations, here’s what you need to do to optimize your storage:

1. Tap “Show All” to see the storage optimization recommendations for your device.
2. Read the description of each recommendation, then tap “Enable” to activate it or tap the recommendation to review the contents you can delete.
