Apple is a brand that is built around premium products. The products offered by Apple are nowhere near the price range at which other similar products are sold. Hence, the general expectation by an Apple user is that the products they trust so much are of top notch quality. And these expectations are more prominent when the discussion revolves around their most popular product – iPhone. Apart from the crazy feats of stunts that you see on the internet, iPhone makes a ton of different things possible. Hence, so many users prefer buying an iPhone over any other smartphone range. This trust that users have on it can turn frangible when the expectations aren’t met. This can happen if a random error plagues many iPhone’s all at once.
Many iPhone users have reported a common glitch where they are not able to see the contents in their phone storage. Whenever they try to access the storage on their iPhone, none of the files or folders seem to load. If you are facing the same issue with your device, use these troubleshooting methods to fix it.

Fixes for iPhone storage not loading:
1) Force restart:
The process to force restart an iPhone has a couple of steps. So read them carefully.
Press and release the Volume Up button on your iPhone.
Then press and release the Volume Down button.
Now press and hold the side button on your iPhone until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
A forced restart may take a bit more time than a regular restart. Hence, be patient while your iPhone is restarting. After the restart, the iPhone storage should load all the content on it.
2) Connect device to a computer:
Connect your iPhone to your Mac or Macbook using a cable. Syncing the data across both the devices can fix the storage issue on your iPhone.
3) Report the issue:
Apart from the troubleshooting given above, there is nothing much you can do about the problem. The best option is to either wait for it to load on its own. But that may take hours. If you are willing to wait for a few hours for the storage on your iPhone to load in, then you can try it. However, most users won’t have the time, nor the patience to wait for things to automatically happen. Hence, report the problem to Apple Support and let their team of professionals suggest further action on the matter.
