Hi everyone,

I recently deleted about 4,500 pictures from my 32GB iPhone 5s ( I deleted them from the "recently deleted" too) but they're still taking 15.5GB of storage space!!! I had a chat with an "Apple Advisor" online, and he told me to back up the phone, erase all content from my phone and then restore the data again. After doing that, I'm still experiencing the same issue. Does anyone know how to get rid of that ghost space :D ?

Thanks!

Have you ever synced your device with iTunes or created an iTunes backup? Either way should removed the cached items.
