Thank you for the screenshot.
Try Removing 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. "Other" being the Culprit:
System Data (formerly called "Other"), basically contains unnecessary files such as caches that are used for system ease of use - all of which gather over time. Caches would be being used for remembrance of application use. Use my User Tip: How to Clear "Other" in your iPhone's Storage - Use Backup - User Tip.
Plug it in to mains power and it will resume upload. :)
Like a computer ? Or like a charger
Charge your iPhone - the OS will delay any sync activities when the battery charge is low. Once you connect it to the charger, try to reboot it to restart the process.
Just tried charging it and rebooting but still at 1% iv tried everything
An obvious question - you do have enough free storage in your iCloud account, right?
If this persists, best to contact Apple Support as they might need to do something on the back-end.
