I've done quite a bit of searching and haven't found a way to delete downloaded files off of my iPhone to free up space for future photos & videos But there are some Excel spreadsheets and pdf files I will be needing.Īnd also, I want to be sure that my phone has the most possible storage available for photos & videos. For simple info, I plan on just using Apple Notes. There are several files that I want to always have available on the phone so that I can refer to them, whether or not I am online. I am going on an extended trip, where my WiFi availability will be spotty, the international data plan for my phone is too expensive and some of the areas won't have cell phone coverage. ICloud files "downloaded" to iPhone How to keep them on the phone? How to remove them from the phone? Can anyone provide me with a thorough Apple support link that explains how to keep "downloaded" iCloud files on my iPhone if I want to, or remove the downloaded files from the iPhone if I want to? My phone is iPhone 8, iOS 12.4.1 I'm hoping that Apple has already explained all of this and it just a matter of me finding the content. Or am I missing something that does allow me to remove downloads from my iPhone the way it is possible on my MacBook? If not, is this something that Apple can implement? I am kinda of hesitant accessing iCloud files on my iPhone if I cannot (easily) delete them from local storage. This seems like a bit of a hassle for something that should be easy to do. The only solutions I have read is to log out from, or stop syncing iCloud, on my iPhone and log back in/start syncing again. This way I free up space on my MacBook and actually only use my iCloud-storage.Īfter showing a few old photo's to my friends, downloaded from iCloud to my iPhone, I wanted to delete the downloads, just like I do on my MacBook. On my MacBook Pro I can right click a file or folder stored in iCloud and select 'Remove download' (after I downloaded it to view or edit the files locally). I recently started uploading all my photo's en video's to iCloud to create a cloud-based back-up next to using an external hard drive.
