Manage memory usage

You typically don’t need to worry about managing apps beyond installing, opening, and using them. But there may be times when you want to know more about what’s happening behind the scenes in order to better manage your storage.

IMPORTANT: Android manages and carefully guards the portion of internal storage where the system, apps, and most data for those apps are stored, because this area may contain your private information. It’s not possible to view this portion of internal storage when you connect your de- vice to a computer with a USB cable. The other portion of internal storage, where music, downloaded files, and so on are stored, remains visible for your convenience.

You’re able to optimize your memory usage by:

Uninstalling apps you don’t use.

Deleting downloaded files or files you created and copying them over to a computer via USB.

Removing content from Google Play that’s saved for offline use and streaming it via a Wi-Fi or mobile network.
