Holy shit... my AI apps were eating 47GB of storage.
ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, and voice cloning apps cache entire models locally.
I used Claude to audit and clean it in 5 minutes.
Here are 8 prompts that freed up massive space: ↓

Here are 8 prompts that freed up massive space: ↓
1. Storage Audit Prompt
"Analyze my iPhone storage breakdown and identify which AI apps are using the most space. Focus on apps with cached models, generated content, and offline data. Rank them by storage impact."
Most people have no idea ChatGPT caches 8GB+ locally.

2. Model Cache Clearing
"Write step-by-step instructions to clear ChatGPT's local model cache and conversation history backups without losing my actual chat threads. Include iOS-specific settings paths."
This alone freed 12GB for me.

3. AI Image Generation Cleanup
"Show me how to stop Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, and apps from auto-downloading every generated image to my camera roll. Include app-specific settings."
Your Photos app is probably filled with test generations you forgot about.Leonardo.ai

4. Duplicate AI Content Finder
"Create a workflow to find and delete duplicate AI-generated images in my Photos app. Include prompt variations, upscales, and similar outputs from the same generation session."
I had 847 duplicates. No joke.

5. Offline Model Deletion
"Identify AI apps that store offline models locally (voice cloning, local LLMs, on-device AI tools) and show me how to delete the models while keeping the app installed."
ElevenLabs alone was using 6.2GB for offline voices.

6. AI Productivity App Audit
"Create a cleanup checklist for AI productivity apps like Notion AI, Grammarly, Otter.ai, and Descript that cache large amounts of transcriptions, documents, and processing data."
Otter.ai was storing every recording I'd ever made. 4.8GB.

7. iCloud Backup Optimization
"Show me how to disable auto-backup in iCloud for AI apps I can easily re-download (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini). List which apps need backup vs which don't."
No reason to backup apps you can reinstall in 30 seconds.

8. iCloud Drive Deep Clean
"Scan my iCloud Drive for old AI project files: generated images, model exports, training datasets, API logs, and test outputs over 100MB. Sort by size and date last accessed."
Found 18GB of forgotten Stable Diffusion outputs from 2023.
