I own a samsung galaxy tab s 16gb tablet, I have installed a few games which seem to be taking up more than dobule the space they should be. for example i installed order and chaos online which was supposebly 1.7gb, however when i view the disk usage it says that there is an obb which takes up an additional 1.7gb when there is already the apk which is taking up 1.7gb, what can i do to save space?? I also have a 32gb microsd card which i have nothing on seeing as majority of games cannot run off it

the obb file is a file containing other information than the app. it contains stuff like graphics and media files. the developer of the games makes these files so not much you can do other than not use these games. With out rooting the device with an SDCARD i don't know another way to it unless samsung offers it naively. I know a couple of OEMs do but don't remember who.

so after i have installed can i delete the apk??
 
seems like it sorry. I don't play games so I don't have this issue and am not exactely sure how it works I guess one is a data base and the other is the app. I'm not sure if the data is as big as it says or if its linked with the size of the apk so it could actually be only 1.7 or it could be a total 3.5 again not a gamer so not much help on that end sorry
