iPhone storage is full and you can't take photos or install apps

Your iPhone needs at least 1-2 GB of free space to work properly. Delete old videos and photos, then unused apps. The fastest fix is finding and deleting large videos — most people have hours of videos they forgot about.

Your iPhone stores everything: apps, photos, videos, messages, and documents. When you run out of space, your iPhone can't take photos, install updates, or download emails. Videos use far more space than photos — one minute of video can be 100-300 MB. Clearing videos first frees the most space quickly.
