iphone storage full. It is not full.

I keep getting a notification that my storage is full. I have a 12 Pro Max 256 GB. I am using only 127 GB according to my settings. Says I have 128 available. I have 2 TB of storage on iCloud. What is going on here? This started happening a week ago. I deleted some apps but still keeps notifying me it’s full.
