   • The bottom part of the information pertains to iCloud. Downloads from iCloud are not stored directly on your iPhone.
5. Browse your saved information. Here you will see a list of all apps currently on your phone. On the right side of each app you can see the amount of space it takes up (e.g. 1 GB or 500 MB).
   • Since there is no Downloads folder for an iPhone, all downloads (for example, documents) are calculated in the size of their corresponding app (for example, attachments in Messages contribute to the space that Messages take up).
