For iPhone users, the 'Storage Full' notification is a common occurrence after some time of usage. However, upon inspection, you may notice the presence of 'Other' in the storage. So, how do you delete this 'Other' section? Let me guide you through the steps.
According to Apple, this 'Other' section comprises device settings, Siri voice recordings, message attachments, browser bookmarks, and more. Sometimes, this 'Other' category can even surpass primary data in size, yet its exact nature remains elusive for deletion. You can try two methods as follows.
Method 1: Restart Your Device
After deleting some files and apps on your phone, sometimes the device may not update immediately. Restart your device to ensure it has the latest memory update.
Method 2: Backup Data and Restore Your Device
While this method may take a bit longer, it's undoubtedly more effective than the previous one I discussed.
Step 1: Download iTunes on your computer. Then, connect your phone using a cable. Press 'Back Up Now' on the iTunes screen and let your device automatically back up important information.
Step 2: Navigate to 'Settings' on your phone, select 'General', scroll down and tap on 'Reset'. Your device will then proceed to erase all data.
