iPhone don’t have a slot for a physical SD card, which means you cannot increase the device’s internal storage after you’ve bought it. Instead, you can manage your storage space more efficiently or use cloud-based solutions. Here are some options:


1. Delete Unnecessary Apps and Files: Go to Settings -> General -> iPhone Storage to see a list of your apps and how much space they’re using. You can delete apps you don’t use or offload them to save space.

2. Optimize Photos and Videos: In the same iPhone Storage menu, you can enable “Optimize Storage” for your photos. This keeps smaller, optimized versions on your phone and the full-resolution versions in iCloud.

3. Use iCloud Storage: You can buy more iCloud storage to store your photos, files, and app data. You can purchase additional iPhone storage by upgrading your iCloud storage plan. Here’s how to do it:


A. Go to the Settings app on your iPhone.

B. Tap on your name at the top of the Settings menu to access the Apple ID menu.

C. Select iCloud.

D. Tap Manage Storage or iCloud Storage.

E. You’ll see an option to Change Storage Plan or Buy More Storage.

F. Choose a plan that suits your needs and tap Buy.


Enter your Apple ID password or use Touch ID/Face ID if prompted, to confirm your purchase.


iCloud storage is billed monthly and it’s automatically renewed every month unless you decide to downgrade or cancel your plan.


Remember, always back up important files and data before you delete them.
