I have iCloud on on my iPhone 11 yet I am still getting the message that there is insufficient storage

why do I still have insufficient storage on my iPhone 11 when I am signed in to iCloud?

I can’t seem to figure out “manage storage” and I have 2T !

iPhone 11, iOS 13

I would like you to realize and know one important thing and that is that there is NOTHING that you can do to increase the physical storage capacity of your iPhone. Your iPhone's storage capacity will forever remain the same as the day you bought it.


You have purchased ➔ iCloud Storage from Apple where you can create and save your iPhone backups and synch (Not Store) your Messages, Photos, Contacts, Calendars, Notes and Reminders. Note that iCloud Storage is NOT an extension of storage capacity of your iPhone. Just wanted you to know some facts. Thanks.
