Clear Internal Space.

B. Clean TV and Music Libraries:

About Troubleshooting iPhone Storage:
Try Removing Data from the iPhone itself...
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.
So, what to do:
Find out on my two user tips:
Go to settings>touch your name (applied)> scroll & hit iCloud. That’ll show you what’s taking up all your data. Pictures & apps take a lot! Contacts & instant messages can use a lot of data! Try deleting unnecessary photos, apps, contacts or just look at your storage. I’ve left an example of mine and you can see in yellow. I have a ton of pictures. Under the barcode you can click manage storage in for $.99 a month you get an extra 5GB by upgrading your storage plan. Or eliminate the main things. Good-luck!
go to settings>appleID (your name)>click iCloud > it’ll show you how much data is being used and its color coordinated. Most of the time photos are your biggest issues. You could upgrade your plan by again “manage account storage ” on the same page. I’ve included an so you can see what it will look like. Everything is color-coded and you can delete some unnecessary photos or apps that everyone’s different. I have extremely too many pictures! I had to upgrade for .99 a month through my cellular plan.. in my storage is still full lol good luck!
if you’re referring to iCloud, go to your settings>tough your name(appleID)>iCloud and you’ll see the same image I’ve posted. You can decide to delete whatever is taking up the most space because everything is color-coded pretty self-explanatory or you can upgrade through your cellular plan. I had to upgrade and I’m still in the same position because I have way too many unnecessary photos.! Good luck to you.!
I think because too much Used maybe the reason
