A small OTG (On The Go) type device such as iXpand from Sandisk (https://www.sandisk.com.au/home/mobile-device-storage/ixpand) or the Strontium iDrive (http://strontium.biz/products/apple/apple-accessories/) could also extend the usefulness of the phone re it’s limited and non expandable memory. Some say that OTG will not work on iPhones but there are apps that enable this from the Apple Store such as the iXpand specific app (https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/sandisk-ixpand-drive/id1079870681?mt=8) and Strontium’s similar free app (https://itunes.apple.com/za/app/strontium/id1050123100).
I am not a iPhone user nor do I benefit or have affiliation with SanDisk or Strontium but I am supplying this in the interests of those who may find the 64 GB memory limit too small for their normal usage when they want to store large amounts of media etc on their phone.
Apple also have released some advice to help with using USB devices with iOS 11.4 and later:
Another expansion option is to use a portable wireless storage device such as some that are referred to in the following 2018 PC Magazine article:
