It's a choice you're bound to regret, but you make it anyway. Rather than dropping extra dosh on the pricier 64 GB iPhone, you go the cheaper route and buy a 16 GB thinking surely you'll survive with that amount of space?! Yeah, nah you're not coping are you? Well we're here to help.
Next time you find storage at capacity, instead of going on a deleting spree, instead follow the advice of this genius Reddit user:
This works because your iPhone will first do its best to download that movie before giving up and sending you the “not enough storage” pop-up. Part of that process of them trying is automatically deleting unnecessary files and caches that are hidden deep within your phone.
The best part of this beauty will come when you check your phone’s settings (Settings > General > Storage & iCloud) and see that there is a few more megabytes or even whole GIGABYTES available now.
To get even more of the scarce storage back, just repeat the process time after time until it stops working. The exact amount of storage that you can get back varies, but Reddit users are claiming that they’ve had a lot of success with this.
