That time is long gone. You can follow this useful trick to free up space but first, you need to have a few Mbs of space available on your phone.

Now that you have a few Mbs of space, the next step is to open your iTunes application and find the longest movie you can find. The longer the better. Once you’ve found it, press rent. Not to be alarmed, you won’t have to pay for it as you don’t have the storage to download such a movie. A notification will pop up, informing you of low storage. At this point, you need to go to the settings from the popup notification box and see the magic happen.

Once you’re in the settings, go to the screen where you can check the total and available storage. You will see that trying to download such a large file will have cleared up the cache and space you never knew you had on your phone will be available to you.

You can repeat this technique a number of times until the phone’s cache is completely cleared. Follow the simple steps never to have problems with your iPhone storage ever again.
