This app is relatively large, however, and if your iPhone is close to its maximum capacity you might wonder if you have enough free space to install it. Our tutorial below will show you how to check the available space on your iPhone, as well as provide information about the size of the app and the data associated with it.
How to Check the Available Storage on Your iPhone 7
The steps in this article were performed on an iPhone 7 Plus in iOS 11.4. I am using the most current version of Pokemon Go that was available when this article was written. Step 1: Open the Settings app.
Step 2: Scroll down and select General.
Step 3: Touch the iPhone Storage button.
Step 4: Check the bar at the top of the screen to see how much space you are using. If you subtract the total storage from the used storage, you get the amount of available storage. In the image below that is 32 GB – 24.6 GB, which means I have 7.4 GB of storage left.
If I scroll down, you can see that Pokemon Go is currently using 356.2 GB of space.
If I select Pokemon Go, I am shown a screen that indicates the amount of space being used by the app, and the amount of space being used by its associated documents and data.
If you search for Pokemon Go in the iPhone’s App Store and select it, you can scroll down on the app page to the Information section, where it shows you that the download file takes up 253.7 MB of space.
Pokemon Go has added a lot of features since it was originally released, and one of the most exciting ones is a friendship feature. You can even change your friend code in Pokemon Go if you’ve posted it publicly somewhere, like Facebook or Discord, but no longer want people to be able to add you as a friend if they found your code in that location. After receiving his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Computer Science he spent several years working in IT management for small businesses. However, he now works full time writing content online and creating websites. His main writing topics include iPhones, Microsoft Office, Google Apps, Android, and Photoshop, but he has also written about many other tech topics as well. Read his full bio here.
