I've been using an iPhone 11, and after the latest update, I noticed my storage is almost completely full. Before the update, I was fine with some space, but now it's practically gone, and the phone has become noticeably slower. I've tried deleting a bunch of photos, videos, and apps, but it hardly made a difference. On top of that, iCloud is showing a lot of storage being used, but I don't have that many files stored there. Is this normal behavior after an iOS update? What can I do to quickly free up space? I'm really in a bind since my phone is lagging to the point where I can't even take photos!

Hey, I definitely feel your pain! After a major iOS update, it's not uncommon for your phone to lag and for storage to seem full. A lot of that is due to reindexing which can take a couple of days, so hang tight. It could help to check your battery health too—sometimes when it drops, it can contribute to performance issues. Give it a little time and see if it improves!
Yeah, I agree with the waiting. Plus, make sure to check your settings; sometimes there are background activities that could be cleared!
Sounds right! I went through something similar and after a few days, my phone sorted itself out. But if it's still lagging really bad, maybe you should look into cleaning apps.
