iPhone backup problems

I currently have 236.7 MB out of 5GB of storage on my phone. Yet, my phone won’t backup because is saying that I do not have enough storage in order to do so. Why is this?

iPhone XS Max, iOS 12

iPhone XS Max and 5GB storage?


Probably you are referring to iCloud default storage which is 5GB.

Your iPhone may have 64GB or more hence cannot be backed up on iCloud with default storage.

Options are..

  1. Buy More storage on iCloud
  2. Backup on Mac/PC
