Troubleshooting Stalled Apps:


Clear space.

If there is little space remaining, then that can most certainly result in lagging. So, refer to the following...


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...

Troubleshooting Stalled Apps:



Close All Apps:

An app or few is accessing your system services (i.e. audio). So, close all apps. Hold you finger down as you swipe up. Then, close all of these open apps, by swiping up quickly for all apps.

106 gb out of 128gb is free. I reset my phone today only.

Space After Reset:

22GB of the storage capacity is used after a factory reset?Ihat may or may not be accurate (depends on whether you transferred data). Or are you saying you cleared “Other” (now called “System Data”) and now this is the case(which is likely so)?

I am kinna feeling that i should not buy apple things anymore. This is my first apple device. The reason behind my switch was apple devices are good for like 5-6 years for normal usage and Gaming is smoother on apple.


but just after 2 and a quarter years of usage this iphone 12 is acting like a mid range android phone which i can buy probably with 40% of cost of this one.


really extremly disappointed. They still havent fixed it. Games still drop tons of frames. Just like my 7 year old android mid ranger. :(
