Unable to Upgrade-Memory Issue

Hi,


I fully understand the iCloud is synced with my phone, and if photos & videos are deleted in either location they actually are deleted in both locations upon the next sync.


But... Not enough memory to upgrade ios.


1) How do I gain more memory to do an ios upgrade?


2) what is the highest memory useage that I can have to avoid the issue of memory is too full to upgrade?


3) I have deleted apps


4) I have created the Safari, etc cache


5) I have deleted photos


6) Do I need to go thru my messages and save the photos, etc if I desire, or delete this attachments & messages if not needed?


Thank you.

Did you try upgrading using your IPhone thru the Mac is an option so the download is on Mac

Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with the Finder
