We’ve all been there; you’ve gone to take a photograph of something amazing - maybe a sunset, or a celebrity in the wild, or your delicious brunch - and your phone has refused to play ball.

Honestly, there isn’t much space on your iPhone - so it’s best to make the most of what you have.

So what if we told you that there was an incredibly simple - and absolutely free - 10 second hack to boost your storage space?

Yup, we thought you’d be interested.

Reddit user eavesdroppingyou came up with the clever trick, which is, honestly, something of a life saver when it comes to making a bitta room on your mobile.

He explains: “Just go to iTunes and search for the movie (with a bigger file size than what you have left on storage).

"Click rent and soon you'll get the message saying you don't have enough storage and offers you to go to settings.

“Click that and magically you will get some storage back (probably it erases some useless data from different apps to try to download the movie).

“Repeat the process 4-5 times and before you know it you recovered 1 to almost 2 Gb.”

Genius.
