YOGYAKARTA - Many users feel annoyed because the iPhone memory is full quickly even though it has deleted several applications. Are you one of them? Interestingly, it turns out that the cause of the fast full iPhone memory is not just a big application.
Unfortunately, full storage makes the iPhone slow, difficult to update, can't even save new photos or videos. By understanding the causes, it can help you find the right solution to keep storage relieved.
Reporting from the macgasm page, there are several reasons why iPhone memory still looks full even though you have deleted a lot of data. The reason can be from iOS problems to hidden files that are missed or cannot be accessed directly. Here's a brief explanation:
iOS needs to scan the device again to display the latest memory capacity. Sometimes bugs make the scanning process or report capacity too late.

Almost all applications, both built-in and third parties, have a Recently Deleted folder. Files here are still temporarily stored, so they still take up storage space.
There are times when files are not deleted perfectly due to bugs. The rest of this data is useless, not visible as a file,' but still spending space.
If the previous iOS update didn't work, the update file whose size could be a few gigabytes might still be left on your device.
iOS stores various additional system files so that the device runs smoothly. Unfortunately, this data can be very large and cannot be deleted directly without a special trick.

Just like when a computer is in trouble and technicians suggest restarting, the iPhone can also return to normal with just a reboot. By restarting the device, iOS will re-s scan and recalculate the storage capacity.
Many users are not aware that when deleting files, photos, or videos, the data is not immediately lost. In fact, the iPhone stores it in the Recently Deleted folder which still takes up storage space.
Please note, files usually last about 30 days, while photos and videos can last up to 40 days before completely deleting automatically. You can speed up the process by manually deleting the contents of the folder so that the iPhone capacity will increase immediately.
There are times when deleted photos or videos reappear as hidden files. Files like this are often called Ghost Files because they are not visible so they cannot be deleted directly.
One way to bring it up is to change the date and time settings on the iPhone. Once changed, usually the hidden file can reappear so that it is easier to find and delete.
If you want to really start from scratch or fix a possible problem with iOS, you can do a factory reset. This step will remove all data and content on the iPhone, including accumulating system data.
After resetting, the device returns as new so you can use an iPhone with a more spacious storage space.
The application cache contains temporary files that are stored locally so that the application can run faster. However, cache often accumulates far beyond the need. For example, the Telegram application stores photos, videos, and documents that you receive in chat automatically.
Please note, all of these files are still stored on the device even though they can actually be downloaded at any time. Deleting the app cache can help free up enough storage space.
