How much do you really know about the settings on your iPhone? If you are barely aware of your phone’s settings and their capabilities, even when it comes to giving you back much-needed space on your device, it’s time to learn more about what they can do for you — and how some settings are holding you back from your phone’s full potential. There are certain settings that, put simply, devour space on your phone. If you are all-too-frequently confronting a low storage alert, it may be time to make some quick adjustments. Tech Expert Shubhaa at CrazeForGadgets spoke to SHEFinds.com about the one setting on your iPhone you need to enable to free up so much space. You’ll never have to worry about failing to capture photos and video at that moment you need them, all because of a lack of storage.
Enable Recommendations
One of the best and easiest ways to free up iPhone storage space is to enable the Recommendations option, Shubhaa says. “If you have less than 500 MB of space left on your iPhone, then the phone will slow down eventually,” Shubhaa says. “However, you won’t get any notifications for that.”
Before you even enable Recommendations, the first step Shubhaa recommends is finding out exactly what is eating all your iPhone storage space by going to Settings, clicking on General, and tapping on iPhone Storage. “You’ll find a five color-coded graph that will open on clicking the horizontal bar graph will show the applications which have been
consuming a lot of space on your iPhone,” Shubhaa says. “Now that you know what has been taking up all your space, it’s time to free it.”

“The easiest way to free up space on your iPhone is by enabling the recommendations,” Shubhaa says. “Check if you have the Recommendations option on the
iPhone menu and try enabling it. Apple suggests customized storage saving tips based on every user's usage type. Thus, if you enable Recommendations, you'll also get such
personalized suggestions from Apple regarding freeing up your iPhone storage space.”
Go to Storage in Settings, tap Show All, read each description of the settings, and click on Enable.
“Once you click on Show All, you'll see all the recommendations for your device,” Shubhaa says. “Make sure you read the description and review the contents for each recommendation before enabling it to delete.”
