There is not enough memory on the iPhone, although there is still 1 TB free on iCloud.

My iPhone is completely full of memory, mostly photos and videos. Because of this, I bought extra space on iCloud. Half of the space on iCloud is already full, but there is still no free space on the iPhone. When installing applications or downloading a photo or video, it writes an error - there is not enough space. Although there is a place on iCloud.

you cannot add more space to an idevice. But, you can try optimizing photos (settings - photos) to reduce the size of your library on device. Know that you may need to free adequate space first for the sync to happen with iCloud to optimize.

Thanks for the answer. However, it turns out that such a situation is possible that even if there is free space on iCloud, transferring photos cannot help free up space on the phone itself. I mean, in the support it is indicated everywhere that in order to increase the free space on the iPhone, it is recommended to purchase additional space on iCloud in order to transfer photos and videos there. And all photos and videos will be stored on iCloud, while on the iPhone there will be only shortcuts (or whatever it is), due to which there will be free space on the iPhone.

But on my iPhone, photos and videos take up the largest amount of memory.
