So I have a lot of storage and I looked at my storage and saw that most of it was taken up by photos so I decided to delete all my photos and Apple still says it’s full I also deleted most of my apps.

If I take 1 screenshot my storage starts filling up. My app icons are disappearing and my device isn’t functioning properly I tried helping by taking out as much storage as possible yet still failure.

When first deleting photo they will go into a recently deleted album for 30 days until they are fully deleted and free up space. You can delete them from the recently deleted album to free up space sooner. Follow this support article to permanently delete the photos. If the storage does not free up immediately after that, you may want to restart your phone.
