Check and increase available memory on your phone
Want to check how much memory you have available? Use the storage sense app.
Tap storage sense.
Tap phone.
Tip: Want to see what more you have on your phone? Download the Files app from Store, and
easily manage files on your phone.
If the phone memory is getting full, first check for and remove things you no longer need:
• Text, multimedia, and mail messages
• Contact entries and details
• Apps
• Music, photos, or videos
Remove temporary files to free up space
Tap phone > temporary files > delete. To delete temporary files and other data from just your
browser, tap Internet Explorer settings > delete history.
Tip: If your phone doesn’t recognize the file type of a file (such as a zip file), it places the file in
the Other folder. You can check what these are and delete the ones you don’t need using the
Files app.
