I moved all the files (photos and videos) to icloud, but the space on the phone is not freeing up. I tried to clear the cache and all chats but I don't know the space is free. How can I solve? Having no space, I can't update my phone.
Best regards.
You cannot increase storage of an iPhone. However, you can optimize iPhone Storage by using iCloud Storage. Save space on your device
Settings > [your name] > iCloud Tap Photos > Choose Optimize [device] Storage Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support
You can buy iCloud Storage. --> Buy more iCloud storage - Apple Support
You can manage your storage --> How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Manage your Storage --> Manage your photo and video storage - Apple Support
Your photos are always available for both iPhone and iCloud. You delete it on the iPhone it is gone from iCloud and vice-versa. To save space on your iPhone use optimized iPhone storage. Remember, if you delete in one it is deleted everywhere.
Get started with iCloud Photos:
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.

If you delete Photos and Videos from the iPhone it is deleted from iCloud Photos too, and vice-versa. Alternatively, try uploading to iCloud Drive then you can delete from the iPhone.
