For many iPhone users, the amount of storage space available on their devices is at a premium. With all those apps, photos, songs, and games, it’s easy to hit storage limits, especially on an 8GB or 16GB phone. If you’re running out of space, clean up your email. Email takes up a lot of storage, and if you need all the free space you can get, this is a great place to make some changes. Here are three ways to make email take up less space on your iPhone.

Most of us get emails with images in them, whether it’s newsletters, ads, purchase confirmations, or spam. In order to display the images in each email, your iPhone has to download those images. And since images take up more storage space than text, that can add up to a lot of memory usage.

If you don't mind your email being a little boring, you can prevent your iPhone from downloading this content.

Tap Settings and then select Mail.
