Android device storage gets full because plenty of reasons. For instance, some of the significant reasons are: on-stop app installation, downloading of movies and songs etc. Having less storage always leads to spending more time in adjusting internal space. Mostly, if you spend your time in adjusting that, then it is better to go for a smart device having more space from next time onwards.
Tips to free up storage space on Android
- Android’s inbuilt storage system
The latest model of Android consists of a Storage section that will offer you all the precise details like which application is consuming how much amount of storage. To know about it, go to the Settings and then click on Storage. By this, you’ll be able to note the amount of storage covered by each application with their data. And the same works with the videos, audios, documents etc. Remember that this becomes slightly different from version to version.
- Android 8 Oreo
Google has taken a different path with Oreo than with earlier models of Android. It is so because it has separated the storage menu with a unique type of a list.
Generally, the lists are put collectively by applications whereas Oreo does things a bit different by putting list according to their category. For instance, when you visit the ‘Photos and Videos’ section, it will not only let you know about the images that are making the storage full on your device, but also let you know about any of the related application of it- such as the collage maker.
To deal with this issue, there is a super simple method to make up space in Oreo without even visiting each menu entry- using the huge ‘Free Up Space’ feature which is put on the beginning itself. You need to select it by pressing on it. As a result, it will get you some Downloads with also pictures, audios and videos that are backed up. Select whichever you like to remove and free up space as much as possible. If still, it doesn’t solve out your issue then go to every option one by one.
- Put on a memory card
Normally, the smart devices have a memory card space. If you too have the same, then go to the shop and buy a memory card. After that, put it in your smart device and as a result, you’ll get more space. The space that you’ll be getting after putting on the memory card can be used to store songs, pictures, videos, applications etc.
