What happens if I switch off the "Use Cellular Data for Facetime"?

Question

What happens if I switch off the "Use Cellular Data for Facetime"?

So I got a notice saying that my phone's storage was almost full which makes no sense to me because I barely have about 300 pictures on my phone, barely any apps, but I do have music. I have mail turned OFF, and I am always on WIFI. I don't know how this is a problem.

So what would happen if I pressed the switch off button for the "Use Cellular Data for: facetime"?

I use facetime A LOT with my friends WHILE ON WIFI but if this is causing my storage to go so full, I will do it.

Please heLP!

iPhone 4S, iOS 6.0.1

DIsabling it would have no affect on storage space as FaceTime has nothing to with available space.

Using cellular data has nothing to do with the storage capacity on your phone. By turning it off you will only be able to FaceTime when your connected to wifi, thus saving you on your data plan if you do not have unlimited data from your carrier.

You can go to settings > usage to view what is filling up the capacity of your phone. You should import and back up your pictures to your computer following the directions here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
