Delete stuff, storage fills right back up.
IPhone 13
128g storage
This all started when I tried to upload a 3 hr video to Dropbox. There wasn’t enough room to process it. Tried reducing to 3 one hour videos. Still wouldn’t do it, so gave up.
( yes, I’m old and don’t have a good grasp of storage needs.)
Then, in the past week, I started getting messages that my Iphone storage was full. They pop up all the time and interrupt stuff. Annoying. I have been doing some video editing and I saw there was way too much photo/video being stored. I sent tons to Dropbox, deleted, emptied “recently deleted”, cleaned out iMovie and offloaded apps like crazy.
Great! Freed up about half my storage!
Not great- recorded another gig Saturday, went to edit the songs down and my storage is full again. So I repeat the process this morning, merged duplicate photos/videos, deleted apps I really didn’t want to delete, dumped more videos I didn’t want to dump. Emptied recently deleted again. I freed up about 30g more
That was a few hours ago. It’s full again.
WTH? I don’t have a PC - my phone is it. Help!
