I'm sorry to hear that you're running out of storage on your iPhone. Here are a few things you can try to free up space:

  1. Delete unnecessary apps: Go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage and tap on an app to see how much storage it is using. If you no longer need the app, you can delete it by tapping "Delete App" and confirming the action.
  2. Remove unused or unnecessary data: Go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage and tap on "Offload Unused Apps" or "Review Large Attachments" to delete unused apps or large attachments.
  3. Clear your browsing history and data: Go to Settings > Safari and tap "Clear History and Website Data".
  4. Enable iCloud Photo Library: Go to Settings > Photos and turn on iCloud Photo Library. This will allow you to store your photos and videos in iCloud and free up space on your iPhone.

I hope these suggestions help! If you have any other questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to ask.
