iPhone storage tips

Have you ever tried taking a picture on your phone and received the pop-up, "There is not enough storage to take a photo."?

Are you at the point where you get reminders from your iPhone that you can see how to "Manage Storage" in your Settings?

Here are two quick tricks for you!
  1. We think our storage is coming from photos & music, but that neglects all the picture messages (and sometimes even videos) sent in texts. I learned this the hard way, when I saw one day that "Messages" was taking up 4 MB of space and my 900 photos took up less space than that.

    SOLUTION: Within Messages, type "Video" and delete any videos in your texts. Then, delete the pictures you've sent to others, especially if they're saved elsewhere on your phone as they're taking up double the space!
  2. Panoramic photos use up nearly 4-5 times the amount of storage space as one regular picture (I had some that were 15-16 MB, when usual photos are 2 MB!).

    SOLUTION: Delete all your panoramics to clear up infinitely more photo storage space. 

Good luck!
