Hello micki1967,


For cleaning up space on your Xr you can try the following steps:

  • Delete unused apps.

Go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage and tap on an app to see how much storage it is using. If you no longer need the app, you can delete it by tapping "Delete App".

  • Remove unnecessary data.

Go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage and tap on "Offload Unused Apps" or "Review Large Attachments" to delete unused apps or large attachments.

  • Enable iCloud Photo Library.

Go to Settings > Photos and turn on iCloud Photo Library. This will allow you to store your photos and videos in iCloud and free up space on your iPhone.


Hope this helps!
