Hi guys, Not long joined the forum, Just a little question about icloud storage,
A few days ago i had a message on my 4s saying iCloud storage almost full,
So i went and deleted a few things that was not needed,
Helped a little but today i got the message again, Iv only got 90mb left out of 5.0gb,
So i synced the phone and in iTunes click back up to computer instead of icloud,
I know i can buy more storage but im just wanting to know what you guys do,
Do you buy more storage or back up to computer? Are there any benefits from backing up on the phone? Thanks ;)
 
In the iCloud settings on the phone, click on 'storage and backup' and then 'manage storage.'

Take a look there. Are there any particular apps that are taking up a lot of space in the backup? Do you need them to? Exclude some. For example, I don't back up Facebook data.

Also, what about your photo roll? Do you have lots of videos in there? Maybe copy some of them to a computer and erase them from the phone.
