In any case, the steps i took to rectify the situation were:Ģ) in iTunes, uncheck the categories of things (eg. Not sure how the decoupling came about but i'm thinking it might be because at one point i had my phone backing up to iCloud.that's just a speculation. I had this problem also but have managed to sort it out. I have 8.91 GB free on my iPad now in both iOS and iTunes!

This seems to make your iTunes and storage nearly in sync without any special software and removes any fluff space or fragments that neither iOS or iTunes is properly accounting for. everything iCloud related is turned off for photos. I simply cannot account for half a gig of photos that I can't see anywhere in the photos app. Ive deleted every photo from every album (even the recently deleted) yet my phone still says i have 656mb on data in the photo library. I have a feeling something similar is happening with Photos too. Again, none of this data appears to be accounted for anywhere.

Weird point to note was that the very second I simply opened the music app and then closed it (i didn't listen to anything), the free space dropped to 2.7gb. After the switch, free space jumped to 3.2gb (still didn't match what iTunes said I had, but it was much closer) Settings -> Music -> iCloud Music Library (slide off, then back on)īefore I did this, free space on device said 1.4gb. As others have pointed out, looks like it saves cached versions of the songs you listened to on you device. One solution that saved up a lot of space for me was to turn off iCloud Music Library and turn it back on again. Being that my size is only 16gb, its rather frustrating.

I've encountered the same issue with my iPhone 6s.
