I recently upgraded to the iPhone 13. 256 GB. I deleted and cleared the deleted folder all of my pictures except for like 20 and a few videos very short. When I go to iPhone memory in settings it shows it photos is using 50 GB of data. Where is that 50 GB? No shared folders anymore, nothing except about 20 pictures and a few short videos, nowhere near in the range of 5 GB let alone 50.
iPhone 13, iOS 15
Hello jasonfrombenicia,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
You can learn more about your storage usage in your iPhone settings.
Use your device to check its storage:
Go to Settings > General > [Device] Storage.
This Apple Support page has the full details for How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Does the storage still show as 50 GB after a normal restart of your iPhone?
If you open the Photos app, do you see any other photos or videos here that might be using the storage?
We hope this helps to further isolate the storage issue.
Cheers!
Hello jasonfrombenicia.
Thanks for the screenshot. Next, let's reach out to Apple Support. Contact Apple for support and service Cheers.
Yep. Still shows 50gb. I guess i could just delete the app, and then re-DL it…
Oh wait, I can’t delete it, so I guess I’m screwed out of 50 gigs of storage.
