Well, you might just love those audio books on your iPhone. However, here is the problem. iPhones do not have a lot of space. Unless you've bought an iPhone with a more than 512GB version, you probably do not have as much space. In fact many of the older iPhones have as little as 16 gb of space. You cannot increase the space with an SD card too like your other Android phones. So, you are stuck. A little bit of apps and pictures can easily take up 16 GB and you would need to store things optimally. So, you may need to delete the audio books.
