When your iPad storage is full, start by checking which apps are taking up the most space under Settings > General > iPad Storage. You can often free up space by deleting apps you no longer use or by managing data within storage-heavy apps (like Photos and Videos). Offloading unused apps can also save space while keeping the app data. For a more permanent solution, consider subscribing to iCloud to store photos, videos, and files, or transfer them to another device or external storage.
