Hi Vicigers! Come back with us, this time we will discuss steps you can take to avoid full internal memory on your smartphone.
If your cellphone already has an internal memory capacity of 128GB or more, I think full internal memory isn't a scary thing for you.
However, for those of you who have 16-32GB of internal memory, full internal memory is a scary thing, because it can affect the overall performance of your cellphone.
7 Steps to Overcome Full Internal Memory on HP
-
Delete the cache on the internal storage on your cellphone
You can delete cache on every smartphone with the default function of your cellphone. For some mainstream Android smartphones, you can enter Settings, then the Storage menu, and there you will see how much cache is used up on your internal memory.
Deleting the cache can make your full internal memory relieved again, but the status of your cellphone after deleting the cache will restart the application system from the beginning again.
But this is indeed very effective and useful for those of you who have 16-32GB of potato internal memory, so feel free to delete the cache if you think it's necessary.
-
Delete unimportant media files on the app
Whatsapp is a chat application that consumes the most internal memory, so it is one of the causes of full internal memory on your cellphone. Especially if you have lots of private chats and group chats that often send photos/videos intensely.
You can delete media on your Whatsapp application manually, instead if you delete Whatsapp media files with the help of 3rd party applications, you are afraid that your important photos/videos/files will be accidentally deleted.
You can also manually delete media files in other applications, such as Line, Twitter, Facebook, Youtube offline, etc.
-
Delete Whatsapp backup files regularly
Before you do this, we recommend regularly backing up your WhatsApp online. Because at least if you delete all the offline backups on the Whatsapp application, and your cellphone experiences a crash/error, you can easily find your WhatsApp backup files online.
You can find your Whatsapp offline backup file in the Whatsapp – Databases folder. Then you will find a file with the name msgstore-thn/month/tgl.1.db.crypt12, you can delete all of these files, without worrying that your Whatsapp will get an error.
It's really not bad, periodically deleting these files can add hundreds of MB to several GB of internal storage space, especially for those of you whose WhatsApp has lots of chats and also group chats that actively send media files.
-
Delete junk files / junk files
If you are afraid of doing this wrong, you can do it through the help of 3rd party applications such as:
-
- CCleaner
- Avast Cleanup and Boost
- AVG Cleaner, etc
At least you don't need to be afraid that your cellphone will crash/error, for example because you accidentally deleted a system file.
-
Save files in the Cloud
There are so many cloud service providers nowadays, you just have to choose one and do your own research, which cloud service is right for you, both in terms of security, price, application efficiency, etc.
Today's mainstream cloud services, some of which are:
-
- Google Drive/Google One
- iCloud
- Microsoft OneDrive
- Dropbox, etc
Just imagine how much internal memory you save when you use the cloud.
-
Watch movies and listen to music online
Nowadays, it seems that there are fewer people who store raw files, both movies/music. That, of course, can help you save your HP's internal memory so it doesn't fill up quickly.
Instead of saving files up to more than 1GB for 1 movie, we suggest that you quickly switch to Video On Demand (VOD) services such as Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, etc. Or Spotify, Apple Music, Joox, etc. to listen to music online.
-
Backup files on your cellphone to external storage memory
If you have full internal memory, and don't want to bother doing some of the things above. At least you do this step as soon as possible, to help you expand your cellphone's internal memory.
You can move files that you consider important to a flash drive, external HDD/SSD, or to your laptop/PC. Now is a good time to say 'say goodbye to full internal memory!'
Anyway, for those of you who have a cell phone with a potato internal memory, never let your internal memory be less than 1GB. Or feel the consequences yourself, aka your cellphone, we guarantee it will slow down Vicigers!
