David and David show you 10 different ways to free up iCloud storage space on your iPhone. A lot of different things use iCloud storage space, but the biggest offender for most people is Photos.
If your iCloud storage is full, start by deleting photos and videos you no longer need. ProRes videos and ProRAW photos are particularly large!
If you have a Mac, check if Desktop Documents and Folders are being backed up to iCloud Drive. This can use a lot of your iCloud storage, if you're not careful. We'll show you how to clear up iCloud storage by turning this setting off on your Mac.
Large attachments in Messages and Mail also use #iCloud storage space. While individual images or email attachments may be small, they add up quickly!
Make sure you don't have any backups from devices you no longer use. These unnecessary backups can take up several GB of iCloud storage space.
Apple gives you the option to pay for additional iCloud #storage space. While this may be the most convenient option for a lot of people, consider backing up your photos to your computer instead of iCloud. We'll show you how to back up your photos to a Mac or a PC!
❗️Get an external hard drive: geni.us/auDhzL2
There are some iCloud alternatives like Google Photos, Google Drive, and Dropbox. However, they probably won't be as convenient as iCloud.

How much iCloud storage space is available on your iPhone?

@juju1896 Год назад

40 of 50GB available. Texts are 4GB. I need to purge. Show people how they can delete large text attachments if they don’t want to auto delete texts after 30 days. Great info!

@cassieoz1702 Год назад

4.5 of 5GB. I really don't want to use iCloud at all (i avoided turning on iCloud in previous ios updates) but I feel it threatens to delete all the photos on my phone if I delete them from iCloud. Is that true? Google has already backed up these same photos

@James20000 Год назад

Mine took up 2.7 GB of 5 GB of iCloud storage.

@glendonjhagroo2031 Год назад

Finally I Removed my iCloud Lock google iremover I like some of the transitions, but sometimes they're a bit too much and are seemingly random. Since we use these persistent elements that transition across pages to indicate some kind of relationship between the previous and the next states, some of your transitions confuse me because I can't immediately see what the relationship is. For example 1:23 of the selectable tiles (which weren't selected) transition into being two switches... does that mean anything? are they related in some way? I see this as random and a bad use of the design language. However, at 3:14 I like the transition from switches to the ticks on a paper, that makes sense to me. Epic presentation

@TheFeliceSkye Год назад

This was a very informative. I just wish I could figure out how to access my photos from iCloud only. My phone’s storage keeps filling up and all of the photos that seem like they are on my phone are not downloaded from the cloud. Because I don’t have enough space on my phone the photos won’t even download. And I can’t even airdrop them to my other devices. How do I get them out of the cloud using another one of my apple devices or my computer?

Hi, Thanks for producing this video. I have two questions: 1. Have you produced a video instructing how to back-up the entire iPhone - including notes, messages, photos, etc. - directly to an external hard drive instead of the Mac's internal hard drive? 2. How can I back-up just my text message by not using iCloud?

@pleaseholdadvertising7883 8 месяцев назад

Nice video guys, thanks, yes, I usually do a back up to my windows tablet,,,,,,, but what if I want to back up to google photos , do I lose quality of pro resolution, or if I’m taking 48 megapixel shots . ?

@MookieLoo888 Год назад

I feel like we have very different phones, I see none of which u show to delete. ProRaw and ProRes? Delete documents and data? Mine just says delete data in red so I clicked on delete and it did nothing. My phone hasn’t enough space for backups for a couple years. I can’t figure out how to fix it. Deleted every single photo, didn’t work. Says I used 3.5 out of 5.5 and still not enough space. I give up

If you are watching on a laptop, you can click on the gear at the bottom of the screen and it opens a window that gives you the option to change the playback speed. Don't know if you are watching on a phone.

@johncooke1386 what I did because I am hearing disabled, is turn on the subtitles. Stop it every sentence, sometimes go backward and I took 10 pages of notes. I know this is very OLD school, but now I have the entire video written down. Yes, it took a while, but it is now in my notebook for me to refer to any time I need to review it. :) I hope this helps. Some people, if you watch this on a laptop and have PPT, you could copy and paste with your snipping tool, each frame (a lot of work, I know) and have it in PPT.

Now how do we get our photos/videos that we transferred from our iphone or mac to an external to show the original date they were taken/made on the external? Every time I transfer to an external it only will show the date they were transferred to the external device and bot the original date taken. Its so frustrating, now if I delete the photos/videos after the transfer to the external how the heck am I supposed to remember when the original photos/videos were actually taken?????? HELP!!!!!!!

@carolnearson7932 Месяц назад

100% agree. I assume that if we were transferring to a Mac computer it might be ok. When I transfer them to my computer they are in separate files ALL jumbled up, not at all in the order they were on my phone. It’s a mess. I don’t know why I bother, when I exit this earthly plain my kids will not be going thru my computer…

Good info. I try to follow along, stop the presentation then pop over to do as you show. Apparently if one has an older phone it won't match with what you show. But I do like the suggestion on the external drive. Question is can you use a thumb drive to just save photos then dump onto a computer? No I'm not tech at all but always confused😂

You can use a thumb drive. I'd recommend using two drives so you have two copies in case one becomes defective.
