Memory

[mjvala780]

Hello - Apologize in advance if this is covered in another thread, but I have had a hard time finding it. My phone's internal memory is practically full, yet I don't have much stored on the phone (a few photos of my kids and some apps). When I go to the "storage" area to see what is taking up all the space, I see two things:

App Storage - 5.60 GB/6.07 GB
Apps - 1.13 GB
Other - 4.47 GB
Available - 480 MB

Phone Storage - 9.08 GB/9.93 GB
Apps - 2.22 GB
Music - 1.38 GB
Photos & Videos - 1.30 GB
Other - 4.19 GB
Available 874 MB

What concerns me is the "Other" is eating the majority of my storage, and I don't know what the heck it is! Can anyone tell me - without getting technical, because I don't know what I'm doing - what, if anything, I can do about that? Right now, sometimes I have to delete photos and apps to get other apps to update because I'm getting an error message that there's not enough storage space to update my apps - honestly I don't have that many superfluous applications.

Much appreciated!

This is the app that I use to keep track of my storage: Disk Usage - Google Play. It provides convenient visual indicators of what is using your storage space, both in app storage and on the virtual SD card. Hopefully that can help you figure it out.
