Hello all, I am constantly getting the pop-up on my phone telling me my storage is almost full. I have about 60-65 apps and I barely am able to hold photos on my phone because the storage fills up so quickly. When I plug my phone into iTunes it says the most space I take up is with documents and data and that is at 8.67 GB. I don't even know what that entails! Can someone please inform me of this or give me any tips on how to lower the storage it takes up? Thanks!
 
go to settings>general>usage

find out what's taking up the space and then you will probably have to delete some. Photos and messages and music are at the top of my list. I take photos off periodically and I delete old messages.
 
Also delete photos, videos and gifs from email accounts. Messages will take a lot of space if you never delete them. Photos can be put on Dropbox, Google+ or stored on a PC. I keep music to a minimum on my phone, and switch out from iTunes. I never have more than 200 songs on my phone.
