Everything saving to iPhone instead of iCloud I set my iPhone to save photos, backups / data to iCloud, but my phone keeps telling me my phone storage is full and nothing is being saved to iCloud. I still have over half of my iCloud storage available and my settings still say "save to iCloud" is turned on. Now it is making my phone malfunction. How do I fix this?

Phone storage full. I’ve deleted apps, photos and videos and it doesn’t change, still using same GB. Still have over 150 GB in the storage I bought, not sure how to get it transferred over. Phone keeps continuing to crash I’ve deleted tons of apps tons of pictures and tons of videos and the storage does it change keep saying that it’s full and I can’t do an update and my phone keeps crashing.
