How can I check available disk space on iPhone?

How can I check available storage space on iPhone? How to see what's taking up space on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch?

Knowing how much storage is available on an iOS device can mean the difference between shooting a video and a disk full error. iOS requires a minimum amount of free space to run properly.

iPhone storage

Checking available storage in iOS can be done two different ways:

  • Navigate to Settings -> General -> iPhone Storage to list how much space each individual app is using.
  • Navigate to Settings -> General -> About to see a summary of free space and the number of media files on an iOS device (Photos, Videos, Songs, and more).
