Need to free up space on your iPhone,
but having a hard time parting with absolutely anything it contains? I
don’t know about you, but I’m that person with a 64 GB iPhone that has
35 GB of music—in other words, way more than I could ever listen to. That
storage could be put to better use; and now with iOS 10, it can be, without any
of my Apple Music disappearing. Optimizing your iPhone music storage in iOS 10
is pretty easy to do and completely automatic. Optimizing storage on iPhone
means selecting a minimum amount of storage your music can take up and allowing
your iPhone to remove the downloads of all that extra music you rarely listen
to. Here’s how to optimize your iPhone music storage.
I love this feature because
it helps me create more storage on my iPhone automatically but all my music
will still be available in the iCloud Music Library. That means my collection
will be intact without my iPhone storage being more than fifty percent music.
To turn on automatic music storage optimization:
·
Open
the Settings app.
·
Tap
Music.
·
Select
Optimize Storage.
Share this tip with a friend:
·
Toggle
on Optimize Storage.
·
Under
Minimum Storage you’ll see five options: None, 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, and
32 GB.
·
Select
the amount of music you want your iPhone to keep downloaded on your iPhone.
