You cannot store apps on iCloud. However, you can optimise your phone storage by storing full resolution on iCloud.


Store your photos and videos in iCloud


  • Tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos.
  • Tap Sync this iPhone. In iOS 15 or earlier, tap to turn on iCloud Photos.
  • Select Optimize iPhone Storage to save space on your device.
