xa2 storage almost full

hollandnigel — Thu, 04 Apr 2019 18:16:36 GMT

My phone apparently has 19Gb and I have 1Gb left,
I hardly have any apps, and use Files Go to keep it clean, all my photos are removed once backed up to Google Drive

Any ideas?

Just go to settings > storage > internal storage > take screenshots and post it here

@hollandnigel

I can't see the screenshots, we have to wait to get approved, or you can upload them on a different website and post the link here

Hi @hollandnigel, welcome to our forum!

There seems to be mostly applications taking up space in your device (11 GB) but you mention that you don't have that many applications installed, so there could be a lot of cached data saved from certain applications.

If you go to Settings > Storage > and tap on "Other apps", all apps should not be listed in size order and you can go through the list and see how much space certain applications take up. If you run into an application that you know is generally very small in size, but it's taking up a lot of your memory, tap on it and and check what is says to the right of "Cache".

Let us know how it went!
