I want to free up storage from my phone but I don't want to delete the data on the app. To clarify, I want to be able to uninstall the apps that I have but be able to have it backed up to an icloud, but the data not taking up space or storage on my actual device, but to have it deleted on my iphone but not my icloud itself
iPhone XR, iOS 14
