Keeping track of the storage on your iPhone or iPad is important to ensure that you don’t run out of space for important files or apps. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to check the storage on your iPhone or iPad.
Step 1: Open Settings Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad. It’s the app with the gear icon.
Step 2: Go to General Scroll down and tap on “General.”
Step 3: Tap on iPhone/iPad Storage Tap on “iPhone/iPad Storage.” This will show you the amount of storage you have used and how much storage is available.
Step 4: Review storage usage by apps Under “iPhone/iPad Storage,” you’ll see a list of apps and how much storage each app is using. You can tap on each app to see more details and even delete the app if you don’t need it anymore.
Step 5: Offload unused apps If you’re running low on storage, you can offload unused apps. This will delete the app but keep its documents and data on your device. To do this, tap on the app you want to offload and then tap “Offload App.”
Step 6: Delete unnecessary files You can also delete unnecessary files, such as photos or videos, to free up space. To do this, tap on “Photos” or “Videos” under “iPhone/iPad Storage,” then select the files you want to delete and tap the trash icon.
Step 7: Use iCloud storage If you’re still running low on storage, consider using iCloud storage to store your files. To do this, go to “Settings” > “Your Name” > “iCloud” > “Manage Storage” and select the plan that best fits your needs.
By following these steps, you can easily check the storage on your iPhone or iPad and free up space if necessary. Keeping track of your storage usage will help ensure that you don’t run out of space for important files or apps.
