How can one disable “iPhone Storage Almost Full” notifications?

I have the same exact issue. Newest iOS update did it I believe. I have 30GB free and it constantly tells me I’m out of storage. Like others have said, it’s ridiculous that a 1200 dollar phone has a notification pressuring you to buy their overpriced cloud storage option.

My gosh I don't understand the confusion with OP's question. OP indicated he/she has 50 GB storage left on the phone, so its a false notification. The notification is under "Settings", where there would also be a notification if there is an iOS software available that you have not installed, so it is somewhat problematic. I have the same exact issue. I won't get into the iCloud stuff, because that seemed to make everyone's brains leak out, but basically in my case my phone was almost full, I then deleted a ton of photos, and now I have at least 40 GB of free space left, yet the notification that "iPhone Storage Almost Full" remains. I have an iPhone 11 and using latest iOS release. Some useful guidance would be appreciated.

Apple gotta fix this ****

OK, did a little more digging. Apparently its a known bug with iOS 15 and this article suggests to "do nothing" and wait for the fix, which is what I am going to do....

Hey required240,

Thanks for the reply and clarification of the message you're receiving.

The "iPhone storage almost full” message pertains to your iPhone, and doesn't have anything to do with iCloud.

Take a look at the available iPhone storage by going to Settings > General > About > Available, and verify that there is available space.

If the available space is getting low, this article can help to see what each app is using: How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

The storage message should be dismissible. If it's not, have you restarted your iPhone recently? If not, go ahead and do that, as a restart can resolve unexpected issues. Restart your iPhone 

If you still have several GBs available, and the storage message still appears, and/or that message still can not be dismissed, we'd recommend contacting Apple Support. Get Support

Cheers!

Don’t mistake your unfamiliarity with an issue with a lack of clarity in OP’s post. The post made it perfectly clear whether the OP is “running out of iPhone storage or iCloud storage.” It’s literally right there in the error message OP quotes.

Seriously how does anyone not understand that the issue “CLEARLY WRITTEN” is the recommendation/notification/annoying red check mark does not offer a way to ignore it!!! My goooooodnes

Hello required240,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities! It looks like you are getting an iCloud storage message, and we'd like to help.

It's entirely up to you if you'd like to or not use iCloud services. 5GB of iCloud space is provided, however, you can disable iCloud, so that nothing is uploaded which would affect the storage space. Go to Settings > Tap your name > iCloud > Turn off every item under "Apps Using iCloud".

Manage your iCloud storage

This article explains the difference between iPhone and iCloud storage. You'll get notifications when both are nearing being full. However, purchasing iCloud storage will not increase the storage amount which your iPhone came with.

What's the difference between device storage and iCloud storage?

Take care!

Thank You for writing this! It is unbelievable how difficult it is to get rid of the “recommendation”

I would suggest at this point that you actually make a call to AppleCare and speak to someone on the phone to go over your issues. It is difficult to tell from your description as to whether you are running out of iPhone storage or iCloud storage. And warnings about being close to running out are not "ads", serious problems with your data can occur if you actually run out of storage which is what the message is designed to avoid.

I had posted that it went away but that only lasted a few weeks, it returned last week and hasn’t gone away. I am in process of installing the latest update. Disappointed that it was not corrected in this build either!

I’m sorry are you some sort of veteran here or moderator. To me it wasn’t clear and I can’t see how saying contact Apple Support is unhelpful. Please post your solution to the problem so I can use that in the future.
