How To Free Up TONS Of iPhone Storage [2023]
Ғылым және технология
David & David show you 25 different ways to free up storage space on your iPhone, and how to optimize your iPhone so it never runs out of storage again.
Videos and photos generally take up the most iPhone storage space. Start by deleting the videos and pictures you no longer need. Pay extra attention to ProRes videos and ProRAW images. These files are significantly larger than regular videos and photos.
If you don't want to delete your photos, you can still compress images and trim videos to clear iPhone storage space. We've even built a helpful shortcut that compresses ProRAW images for you!

Next, delete offline content you no longer need. This includes music, podcasts, and saved episodes from streaming services like Netflix.
Offloading or deleting unused apps, deleting old messages, and clearing caches can help you free up iPhone storage space.
If you're still low on storage space, or if you're receiving a notification that says iPhone storage full, transfer your photos and videos to a computer. We'll show you how to transfer these files to Macs and PCs.

How do we stop the screen splits and slow down the ads. Everything is extra. These phones are so dam expensive this should already be include, plus with a longer cord and headset like the old days….

They definitely have a LOT of work to do. I have a 64GB iPhone 12 and I reset everything last month (June 2023) And if system data didn’t exist I would be able to store more!! Resetting helped but then it started eating up again and being a 64Gb iPhone, 9-10Gb of system data is a LOT. I only have like 100 songs downloaded and compared to my mother (64GB 11, she has just as much as space as I do) while having 8,000 photos and 50-60 apps.

Super helpful video, well thought out, easy to follow and helped me free up loads of space on my gfs phone and save the day 😂 Thanks guys! (Also you both have supper likeable personalities, bonus compliment for you - from the heart ✊🏽)
I am so thankful for your helpful tips.
OMG thank you so much I was trying to do this for a month and all the lessons I watched always never helped but then you guys came in and I think you guys need a celebration time whoaaaaaaaaaaaweeeee keep up the good work pls
Many Thanks!! You 2 ROCK 💯%‼️
Thanks so much guys! My 128g phone just got full and I wasn't sure what to do! This really helped
Thanks guys for this video, it helps a lot. Keep on the great work !
Always well worth the video watch for the information you guys gives us..
Thank you for helping me reclaim over 20 GB of space on my phone. I do believe it’s important to mention one downside of automatically offloading apps though. If the app is removed from the App Store and you have offloaded it for some reason, you cannot reinstall it, even if your personal data is left on the phone. At that point, you were just forced to delete the app altogether. This may not be a problem for major apps like Facebook or dropbox, but it is a huge problem for smaller apps from independent developers. I have lost several cooking apps that way. Since I didn’t remove them from one of my other devices, I still get to use them on there with no problem. That makes me really sad. 😞 for that reason, I only offload apps manually, and I’m only willing to offload ones that are backed by large companies with deep pockets that I know I can reinstall. I wish we could go back to the days when you could download an app in iTunes and put it on your devices so you wouldn’t lose an app because Apple through an app out of the store for not updating an icon or because now they’re on a cycle where you have to post updates every few months or get kicked out of the store. Again, thank you for helping me reclaim some space on my phone. :-) Music was the big culprit for me as well as a lot of podcast files. I haven’t been paying attention to them and didn’t realize how they were creeping up on me.

Finally I Removed my iCloud Lock google iremover I like some of the transitions, but sometimes they're a bit too much and are seemingly random. Since we use these persistent elements that transition across pages to indicate some kind of relationship between the previous and the next states, some of your transitions confuse me because I can't immediately see what the relationship is. For example 1:23 of the selectable tiles (which weren't selected) transition into being two switches... does that mean anything? are they related in some way? I see this as random and a bad use of the design language. However, at 3:14 I like the transition from switches to the ticks on a paper, that makes sense to me. Epic presentation
Thank you so much for this it really helps me a lot thank you
I removed the icloud lock from my iphone 14 using iRemover The iPhone 14 is my first flagship Apple device. Coming from a Pixel 7, I have a few observations. The battery life is awesome, speakers are solid, Bluetooth connectivity is seemless, and the screen is smooth, despite coming from a 90htz display on the Pixel 7, I haven’t really seen a huge difference on the 60htz screen on the IPhone 14. I absolutely love this phone.
I just wanna say that I already tried buying a more expensive iPhone and still ended up here... | very helpful video btw!! thank you!

Omg this work I can’t believe it thank you yall much love
Please explain/ clarify as to why you I would turn ‘ON’ Lossless Audio. It clearly reads; Lossless files preserve every detail of the original audio. Turning this on will consume significantly more data.
Thanks I Finnaly got rid of unwanted videos and cleaned up my storage
OMG Thank you guys so much!
I did all this. My main issue is understanding the sync option. I have read that if i turn off icloud sync for photos, delete photos on my device and then turn on cloud photo sync again, cloud will update to mirror my iPhone (meaning it will update to look like the iPhone photos, including the deleted photos, therefore it will delete). I don't know if this is true, but I don't know how to remove photo from my device and not removing from cloud. I also have google photos which crashes, onedrive which fails to upload and google drive which is always paused. Amazon prime photos is very slow to upload and is still trying to catch up, but i need to delete a lot of device photos quickly and don't know how.
For the last two months my storage has been extremely high and for the previous month my system data was over 80GB. Time after time I tried to delete anything/something to get those numbers down. After watching this video I deleted apps I no longer use and then cleared the Safari cache and a few more=My storage was reduced to 19GB of system data-AMAZING!

If I do all these settings and when we switch to a new iPhone will all these settings will transfer too to the new iPhone or I have to go through all the way again ? Basically my question is switching to a new device also carry forward the settings or not please make a video on switching from a older device to a new one.
I love my iPad and I always will but I'm still wishing Apple simply becomes GENEROUS with storage like Android has done (support for affordable 500GB -1 TB external storage) instead of all these prehistoric offloading tricks and reluctant deleting. But it's understandable since they want to delay such basic features for iOS 50 or whatever just to ensure future selling points.
Firstly, thanks, there is so much good stuff in. This video. I wouldn’t dream of telling you how to run your channel, but it’s too much for an old guy like me to absorb. The fault is mine not yours, but I suspect I am not alone!
THANKS SO MUCH I had 400s of photos that still counted in storage
Hi love watching yall video I have learned alot from watching yall videos thank you ... Can you do a video for android phone storage please
Hi there great vid, I have a question. I tried to delete apps per your instructions starting on 10:28. When I click on the app I do not get any options to delete? Is there another way. Also do you have a vid about receiving and deleting apps from the library? Thank you
You could run a talk show. You’re great. It would be so entertaining
very helpful thank u
Hi thanks for the info
thanx this helped!
I’m glad this works😅 ty
The cache on one app was storing 100+ GB of data! It took almost all the 256GB of data I have on my phone and labeled it as my apps taking majority of my data! I deleted plenty apps and nothing happened until i realized it was the cache in that one app from this video! I’m now at 68GB used out of 256GB vs 234GB out of 256 GB from that one apps cache so crazy thanks so much 😝😊😊😊😊
THANK YOU
Love the humor gentlemen lol. Love the videos too
I've been clicking save video I have now learned my lesson I'll try that now
Pretty helpful for RAW compress photo, now I can make better photos with my 13 pro. I wonder why Apple is making HDR by default and not implementing RAW/compress by default
Wow! This is the video I have been searching for to free up space on my iPhone for forever! Question, the delete items after import is not there on my Mac. Any ideas? Thanks

Great video and I have subscribed to your channel. Some constructive feedback. Perhaps slow down how quick you talk and jump in between the settings you are teachings us :) Otherwise very helpful.
70gb to 28 GB ❤❤❤❤ Thank you
iPhone Xr here. 64GB (archaic, I know - it was handed down to me by Fred Flintstone) - anyway. 64GB is actually only 59.55 capacity, according to iTunes, and the actual biggest culprits are iOs 8.92GB and system data 8.82 GB - that's nearly 20 GB without any apps, songs, photos, videos. How do I reduce these? Clearing the Safari cache made no difference to system data. I tried other app cache, too. Thanks for the video.
OMG this is such a life saver sooooooooo HELPFUL thank you
PRO RES DESTROYED MY STORAGE
This is very helpful I wanna cry bcs I couldn’t even back up my phone this helped so much
10:31 Keep message for 30 days is the one setting I’ll never touch to activate. After a close relative of mine passed away, it’s literally the only history of communication I have left. I have exported the messages, but its way to important to delete.
So , what's the reason for icloud if it's not a way to delete photos from your iphone and have them on the "icloud" and save space on your phone?
when you send photos through text or upload to social media, is the full resolution picture used or the thumnail?
The compress shortcut in your description wouldn't open for me. Says not found. How can I do this manually? Steps?
Thanks
Great ! Thank you ! :)

In the meantime time I’ll be sharing this video with my friends
