“Your iPhone is out of storage”

And I JUST deleted a bunch of apps, videos and old messages like three days ago. It’s like as soon as it realises there’s free space my phone it decides to download a bunch of hidden data to make it full again so I’ll be coerced into buying a damn iCloud subscription.

OH and I can’t even download my photos to my PC because for some reason Apple decides to store them in a format that can’t be read by windows anymore and makes it exponentially difficult to store iPhone photos on a computer. I spent probably three hours trying to find a file converter and couldn’t.

I remember 6-8 years ago if your phone storage was full you’d just plug it into your computer and download all your photos to save space. You can’t even do that anymore without jumping through a million hoops. And even when you do, it seems at though the space you create gets filled with background app data almost immediately. All so you’ll be forced to spend money on a monthly subscription to store it in the cloud. I’m so over it.
