Why Your iPhone is Slow
#3. Check the Memory Usage

The phone may be performing slow if the amount of free memory is low. If you’ve had the iPhone for over a year, take a lot of photos, or have a lot of apps installed, checking the memory usage periodically is good practice. Unused apps and photos that take up a lot of memory should be deleted. The iPhone storage can be managed by going to:

Settings > General > iPhone Storage

Delete unused apps

As shown above, the iPhone storage screen provides a breakdown of the memory usage per app. If you choose to delete an app, select it from the list and press the Delete App option.

2. Delete Messages, Photos and Music

Messages, photos and music all contribute to the overall iPhone storage usage. Selecting Messages from the iPhone Storage list gives the top conversations, photos, and GIFs/Stickers that can be deleted. Selecting Music displays all of the songs and memory size, with the option to delete. Photos will need to be deleted through the Photos app.
