iPhone Storage

Hey there libbier,

If you've followed the resource and steps above, it sounds like you may need to create a backup of your device using iTunes or Finder, then erase all content and settings

• How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
• Erase all content and settings from iPhone
• You'll then want to set it up as new and ensure it is updated to the latest release of iOS. If so, follow the second resource once again to erase all content and settings, then restore your backup.

If you continue to have issues after taking these steps, you'll want to Contact Apple Support

Have a good one!

Hi libbier,

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. I understand you are attempting to manage the storage on your iPhone.

Other refers to: "Non-removable mobile assets, like Siri voices, fonts, dictionaries, non-removable logs and caches, Spotlight index, and system data, such as Keychain and CloudKit Database. Cached files can't be deleted by the system."

"Go to Settings > General > [Device] Storage. You might see a list of recommendations for optimizing your device's storage, followed by a list of installed apps and the amount of storage each one uses. Tap an app's name for more information about its storage. Cached data and temporary data might not be counted as usage.

In the detailed view you can:

• Offload the app, which frees up storage used by the app, but keeps its documents and data.
• Delete the app, which removes the app and its related data.
• Depending on the app, you might be able to delete some of its documents and data.

If your device is almost full and can't free up space, you might get a Storage Almost Full alert. If you see this alert, you should check the storage recommendations or you need to offload some less-used content like videos and apps. "

You'll find more information to help you manage your device storage below.
