How to free up enough space on iPhone for iOS 8

Apple has just released its biggest iOS ever -- iOS 8. It needs up to about 5.8 GB of available space to complete iOS 8 update, some models of the device even up to 7 GB. You can tap "Settings > General > Software Update" to see how much space you need.

Preparations you need to do:

Mac OS X 10.8 - 10.11
iOS 8
Intel-based architecture Universal 32/64 bits
Others: iTunes installed

Option 1: Delete unused and similar apps

★ Choose apps that you don’t frequently use. Top targets should be games because some of them were forgotten after they were played first several times.

★ Choose apps having similar features, such as some photo editing tools, video players, and some third-party apps that functions the same as those coming with the system.

★ Tap on an app on iPhone home screen. Hold it until all apps begin to wiggle. And then click the "X" beside each unused and similar app to remove it from your iPhone.

Option 2: Clean junk files
