Hi James, You can go here to see how much data is used by each app you have installed:
Settings General Usage At the top you see the storage space of your device, both what's free and what's used. Next you see how much is used by your apps, I believe this is in the order of most to least, e.g. for me Music shows up first with 25.8 Gigabytes, then Audible with 1.8 Gigabytes etc. You see I think 10 apps listed and then "Show All Apps", double tap on it and you can swipe through all your apps. Below that is a heading "iCloud" and it also shows you total storage available, 5 Gigabyte if you haven't purchased more, then what's available and below that a Manage Storage button. Now here it will tell you how much space is used for Backups. After that you will hear "James' iPhone, This iPhone" (assuming that is what your iPhone is called). Double tap on that. Now at the top you find information about when your last backup was and how large it was, then you find "Backup Options - Choose the data you want to back up". Below that it announces the size of the next backup and it is followed by a listing of some of your apps, after the last one there is once again the "Show All Apps" which if you double tap it does just that. In this list you only see if the app is "on" or "off", i.e. if it's included in the iCloud backup (on) or not included (off). If you turn an app off the size of the "Next Backup" goes down as long as the app you turned off had data in it. I found that apps like Skype, Light Detector, ColorVisor and so on can be included in the backup, but turning them off makes more or less no difference because all that is being backup up is maybe some settings which take almost no space. Apps that make a big difference are Camera Roll, Audible (if you have downloaded lots of books) and so on.
