iCloud Storage - Practically Empty, Device Says Full

I’ve been experiencing rather interesting going-ons with this 3rd generation iPhone SE (iOS 16.0.2) recently. First, I don’t think anyone still says that iPhones are impossible to hack and they’re totally secure, do they? Despite my carrier having recently shipped me a replacement device due to the one having been someway or somehow compromised, I haven’t yet unboxed it.

Moving forward with my issue. I am receiving a message on my device notifying me storage is full and cannot complete action when I attempt to copy an ‘icloud share link’ to a :30 second video already saved in the cloud. Only 1.7GB of 5GB storage is currently being used. When I was able to copy link last night and share it via email with Spotify customer service they informed me that my video was not viewable.

What I can say is that I’m an Apple customer and I refuse to accept this device’s recent behavior as ‘the norm’.

I’d certainly appreciate any constructive feedback that the community might have to offer.

Thanks!
