Pleas help - iPad storage and a gig tomorrow night

jmhenry5150

I turned on sync and geez my ST3 storage went from 6 GB to over 16 GB and now I keep getting a pop-up that says I’m out of storage on my iPhone it’s over 32 GB(!) WTH.

I have a gig tomorrow night so I am wigging out a bit

Is it safe to turn off the sync? I’m afraid of deleting all my data?

BTW I have checked the recently deleted folders in Files and there’s nothing big in there.

Yes, turn off the sync. It will take a while for iOS to free up the cache files needed for syncing. Which is what is most likely taking up your space. A reboot might speed this up.
