iPhone 7 storage full. Deleted 900 photos from icloud, all podcasts, 6 apps and a bunch of music from phone. Now storage is more full than before and there are no photos on the phone. Apps won't launch because of storage issue. WTH?
Your photos are always available on both iPhone and iCloud. You delete it on iPhone it is gone from iCloud and vice-versa. To save space on your iPhone use Optimised iPhone storage. Remember, if you delete in one it is deleted everywhere.
Get started with iCloud Photos:
Tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos.
Turn on iCloud Photos.
Select Optimize iPhone Storage to save space on your device.
With Optimize Storage, smaller, space-saving photos and videos are kept on your device while all of your original, full-resolution versions are stored in iCloud. And as long as you have enough space in iCloud, you can store as many photos and videos as you want.

Thank you. I'm not trying to increase my storage. My phone should have plenty of storage since I deleted 900 photos, all my podcasts, 6 apps and a bunch of music. For some reason it is not syncing with icloud. The problem is that I have less storage now than I did before I deleted all of the above items. And, for some reason the phone now has no photos whatsoever. It should still have about 1000 photos after deleting 900.
