How to free up space on your phone with Elkjøp Cloud

Updated over a year ago

Free Up Space is a feature that lets you remove photos and videos from your phone that are already safely stored in Elkjøp Cloud. This way, you free up space on your phone by only storing photos and videos in the cloud.

You can of course download the photos and videos to your phone again at any time!

How to use the Free Up Space feature

  1. Select "Free Up Space"

  2. The app will automatically find photos and videos that are already stored in Elkjøp Cloud

  3. Select the photos you want to delete locally from your phone (remember that they will now be safely stored in the cloud and that you can download them again at any time)

  4. Confirm that you want to free up space on the photos and/or videos

  5. The mobile app does the rest!



Free Up Space and iCloud

Using the Free Up Space feature will delete photos from your local device. If you have enabled iCloud Photo Library on your iOS device, the photos and videos you delete from the device will also be deleted from your iCloud account.

Remove recently freed-up photos from "Recently deleted album" in iOS Photos app.

When you free up space with Elkjøp Cloud the deleted photos and/or videos will be put in an album locally on your iOS device. This means that they will still take up space on your device.

To permanently delete recently freed-up photos from your iOS device go to Photos, Albums and Recently deleted.
