storage issues iphone 6

HI Joe

I have an iPhone6 16gb with the same kind of problem. The only way to solve the problem is to recover the iPhone. However, it will stand for only a couple of weeks, than the problem happens again. in that way, I am always with the problem. Do you have any other idea of what can be done to solve the problem?

thanks.

I have been getting the same message and been deleting photos and other stuff (voice mails take up space). I went to my Camera and checked my Albums in case I missed something. There is a Album called "Deleted photos" and I had over 800 photos still on my phone which I thought were gone! Well I deleted them and my memory now shows 5 gigs FREE! Hope this helps anyone with the problem.

My 6 plus has the same problem. It was allways full. It had only 70mb amd I Restored has Joe recomended. After cleaning lots pf my whatsapp AND restoring the memory went to 7,2GB...but after 1 hour anda not downloading anything, nor taking pictures, the memory wentto 6,3GB. It's flutuating!!! Why???

I am having the exact same problem. it says my storage is totally full but only yesterday i had around 6GB free and i havent downloaded ANYTHING since that time. So strange and upsetting really. I tried resetting all settings as proposed in a different website but nothing.

When we remove whatsapp everythings back to normal 😐

YEsterday after I restored my iphone memory went to 7,2GB free...1 hour after 6,3GB...now 24h after is at 3,7GB....JOUBRAN: you sugest uninstaling Whatsapp and instaling again or the problem is only solved if you DONT HAVE Whatsapp instaled?

I'm also having the same problem, is it really due to whatsapp ?

I am having the same problems. Space just disappears. Do you think it could be whatsapp then? I have been restoring from iCloud and losing up to 3GB of space a day when my phone isn't in use other than sending whatsapp messages

Dear Joe,

How long does the recovery mode take?

Thank you,

Shaida

I think you need restore your iPhone via iTunes. I had the same problem before. But after restoring iPhone via iTunes, everything goes well.

Get your device ready

1. Check that you have the latest version of iTunes on your Mac or PC.
2. If you want to save the information on your device, make a backup.
3. Go to Settings > iCloud. Turn off Find My iPhone.

Restore your device to factory settings

1. Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
2. Connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to your computer with the cable that came with your device.
3. If a message asks for your device passcode or to Trust This Computer, follow the onscreen steps. If you forgot your passcode, get help.
4. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod when it appears in iTunes.
5. In the Summary panel, click Restore [device].
   
6. Click Restore again to confirm. Then iTunes erases your device and installs the latest iOS or iPod software.
   
7. After your device restores to factory settings, it restarts. Now you can set it up as new.

Yes.. Whatsapp is the culprit here.. I was too facing the same storage full issue and whatsapp(latest update on 1st March, 2016) was eating all the storage. After removing whatsapp, everything is working fine.

yes

yes i uninstall whatsapp this morning and i recovered my 5GB lost and after reinstall i lost 500MB and it is going to loss all space.

in this moment i have available 1GB 😟

I am facing the exact same issue with my iPhone 6 Plus. After deleting lots of old videos and photos plus apps i really don't use i had about 5GB freed and after +-20mins while on whatsapp it started prompting low storage again... which i found impossibe that so much space had been taken up again... so i went to Manage Storage it says used 55.2 GB BUT when i add up the used space per app it DOES NOT add up to 55.2 GB.

I hope this gets fixed ASAP. Thanks
