I know this question has been asked so many times before. I’m not sure why it is there such an issue and why is it so complicated that when the iPad gets full to create space. I am paying for monthly storage yet I still have to delete tons of files and even after doing so it still says my iPad is full. Please tell me step-by-step how to fix this it’s so frustrating
