Removal Of Data from the iPhone itself...
Troubleshooting iPhone Storage:
Internal storage cannot be upgraded. It is what it is. So, the maximum internal storage capacity never increases, even if you upgraded your iCloud plan. Learn More here: What's the Difference Between Device Storage and iCloud Storage? Apple Support.
So, what to do:
Clear Space:
Try clearing internal storage though use of the following:
What Space to Clear:
A. Clear Temporary Internet Files:
Clear your Temporary Internet Files(Cookies & Cache) of Safari:
And...
B. Clean TV and Music Libraries:
Remove all unneeded files from your TV and Music Libraries. Full-Movies take up 2-4GB typically, and a bunch of those would take up a load of storage, ideally. So, if you have any movies that are not needed, then delete them.
And...
C. Rid of "System Data" (Formerly Called "Other"):
Back up your iPad, and then restore your iPad form a backup. For reference, refer to my User Tip: Clear Other Storage on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
