Wondering what to do when your phone runs out of storage? Check this out!

What is phone storage space?

• Internal storage capacity: This is the space integrated into the phone's memory. Internal storage capacity can vary depending on the phone's version and configuration. Typically, modern smartphones have internal storage capacities ranging from 16GB, 32GB, 64GB, 128GB, 256GB, up to 512GB or even 1TB.
• Expandable storage capacity: Some phones allow expanding storage through external memory cards, such as microSD cards. This enables users to add more storage space for their personal data. Expandable storage capacity can vary depending on the phone's type and support, usually ranging from a few GB to several hundred GB or even TB.

• Delete unnecessary files: Check your phone and remove files, images, videos, audio, or apps that are no longer needed. This helps free up storage space for new data.
• Transfer storage apps to the SD card: If your phone supports the feature to transfer storage apps to the SD card, you can move some apps from internal memory to the SD card. This reduces storage pressure on the internal memory and creates new space for other data.
• Use storage management apps: There are many storage management and phone cleaning apps available on the app store. These apps help you categorize and remove unnecessary files, cache memory, temporary data, and other unused data efficiently.
• Compress and resize data: Some files like images and videos can be compressed to reduce size. You can use apps or online tools to compress these files without compromising important quality.
• Use cloud storage services: In addition to backing up phone data to the cloud, you can use cloud storage services to store data online instead of on your device. This frees up capacity and allows you to access data from anywhere with an internet connection.

• Clean up cache memory: Apps and browsers often create cache memory to speed up operations. However, cache memory can take up a significant amount of storage space. You can clear the cache by going to Settings > App Management (or Apps) > Select the app to clear cache > Clear cache.
• Delete unused apps: Review the list of apps on your phone and remove apps that you don't use regularly. This will free up considerable storage space.
• Reset your phone: If the above measures aren't enough to solve the issue, consider resetting your phone to the manufacturer's state. Before doing so, make sure to back up your important data. Note: Before deleting any data, ensure to back up files and crucial information to avoid unwanted data loss.

• Consider buying a new phone with more storage: If you frequently face storage issues on your current phone and can't resolve them, you might consider purchasing a new phone with larger storage capacity. This will meet your storage needs and help you avoid storage issues in the future.
