Nowadays, we have got used to recording our daily life with the iPhone - taking photos, shooting videos, chatting with friends, listening to music, etc. Thus our life cannot be separate from the mobile phone.

Then what to do?

How can you regain the storage space on your iPhone?

1. Delete

Have a good habit to clean up those out-dated and useless junk files on your iPhone. For example, if you often take several photos to get one that you like, you'd better delete those that you dislike regularly. Removing useless data on a regular base could save you a significant amount of space. Do remember remove those apps that you would not use them anymore.

2. Optimize

Storing all data on your iPhone is a risking thing. Although making backups could help you handle the data loss problem, there is not enough space for all backups. You have to pay extra money to extend the storage space. That is costly and might not as safe as you think.

Therefore, here I would like to introduce another way to optimize your disk space. That's to use the iPhone transfer software.

How Can EaseUS MobiMover Help You?

This iPhone data transfer tool can help you move all data from the iPhone to the computer or another device. Therefore, you can migrate some large files like photos, videos, music, movies, etc. to the hard drive in the PC. Even if we have used the iPhone to recording many things that happened around us, we only need them for a special occasion. Thus there is no need to hold everything on the iPhone. Transferring them to the computer would free up more space for essential data and also protect the critical data in case of any data loss disasters.
