"iMessages iPhone and iCloud: They’re already backed up on my Mac and I have plenty of room in iCloud. I just hoping to clear up some iPhone space as iMessage is by far the biggest user of my storage. Wanted to see if there was anything I could do about that.”

Troubleshooting iPhone Storage:

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. Learn More here: What's the Difference Between Device Storage and iCloud Storage? Apple Support

So, what to do...

Clear Space Using my User Tips:

• How to Clear Space from your Mobile Device, and What to Clear: - User Tip. You may have too much installed, and need to clear space. So, see my user tip: 
• How to Clear "Other" in your iPhone's Storage - Use Backup - User Tip. Caches would be being used for remembrance of application use. It is essentially the same for an iPhone. You'd backup your iPhone, and then restore your iPhone from the backup you've just created. All System Data will delete.

"iMessages iPhone and iCloud: [...]Is there anyway I can offload from my phone only and download to access them as needed? I don’t want to delete them because it will delete from both iPhone and iCloud and I do not want that. Any suggestions, tips, or anything besides buying the higher gb iPhone?"
