4. Remove podcasts after listening to them

If you enjoy listening to podcasts, make sure to remove them if you finished listening to them. Most people forget to delete them, and then this media file continues to take up space on their phone. I mean… when was the last time you listened to the same podcast twice? If you have no intention of listening to it again, don’t forget to remove the podcast, this can also help reserve space on your phone!

5. Stop the “Live Photo” option

Live photos can be a cool function and all… On the other hand, these photos take up much more space than regular pictures. So if you find that you don’t take live photos as much, you can turn off the feature to help preserve some space.

If storage is tight on your phone, you may need to consider deleting some of the music you downloaded on your phone. You can alternatively use Apple Music, which plays music without downloading any tracks to your phone. You can also just listen to songs you have saved in your iTunes.

11. Movie trick to help clear iPhone memory

You may have heard of this trick, but never tried it because it sounds a bit odd and difficult maybe. This trick requires you to go to the iTunes store and choose any movie to download. For example, “The Lord of the Rings” is about 7GB. If you choose to download this movie and your phone storage is full, you will get a notification that pops up that notifies you that there isn’t enough space on your phone. Close this notification. You won’t have to actually download this movie, but your iPhone will attempt to make space for it anyway. Once you close out of it, by some miracle you will have a little more free space. No one really knows why this happens or how it happens, but it does, and can also help reduce some space on your phone.
