iPhone storage full? Free space without paying monthly

A full phone usually means photos and videos. Moving them to a device you own frees space without adding another monthly bill.

How to do it

Open SpareDisk on both devices. On the first one, choose Show QR.
Scan the QR code with the second device, which shows a short reply code.
Type that reply code into the first device to finish pairing.
Send the largest videos first. They free the most space.
Confirm the files play on the other device, then delete the originals from the iPhone.

Check before you delete

Open at least a few of the copied files on the receiving device. Deleting is the one step you can't undo.

Find the big files first

In the iPhone's storage settings, see which apps and albums use the most space, then move those first.

Try it with the two devices you have

Open SpareDisk on both, scan the QR code, type the reply code, and send. Free to start, no account.
