iCloud Storage

I bought 50GB of iCloud storage and it still says I’m low on storage. I still can’t download apps. What can I do?

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14

iCloud Storage and device capacity are 2 different things. Buying more iCloud storage will not make more space available on your device.

To make room for the apps, you will need to delete content form the iPhone itself. See here: link-> How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
