I’m trying to free up some storage, but when I go to Messages under IPhone storage, it doesn't give me an option to review large attachments. I would really like to be able to do that since a lot of unnecessary photos get sent to me and hog my storage. Thank you
Hi ell1e,
We see you're trying to manage the iPhone storage. In particular, you're trying to delete some unwanted attachments within Messages but you're having difficulties with doing so. We'd like to see how we can help.
It sounds like you're navigating to Settings > General > iPhone Storage > Messages. Typically when there, you should see 'Auto Delete Old Conversations' and 'Review Large Attachments'. Are you not seeing the option to review the attachments? Or, what happens when you tap on the option to perform that action specifically?
While in there, you should also see the 'Documents' section at the bottom. If you do see that, you can tap on Photos, Videos, GIFs and Stickers, or Other, to review the content. From there, you can narrow down which ones are taking up the most storage and tap Edit, select the circle next to the content and tap the Delete icon.
