Use cloud storage. Cloud storage services like Google Photos and iCloud allow you to store your photos and videos online, freeing up space on your phone.

Offload apps. If you don't use an app often, you can offload it to save space.

[{"selector":"#anim-8bf7327f-4c1c-4d10-adc8-c52c22c8fb15","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e9818fbc-5b00-432e-9e94-31196b83d91c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 297.54178%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

When you offload an app, its data is removed from your phone, but you can redownload it and pick up where you left off at any time.

[{"selector":"#anim-f2b49124-3c08-4a77-9a9a-c35ec93edce6","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-65dbcdd9-5bce-43cd-9da3-178ccf11f02a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 207.77778%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Clear app caches. App caches store temporary data that apps use to speed up performance.

[{"selector":"#anim-dc4bc621-cc1b-43eb-b6e0-0aafe504b3d1","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2686183e-6895-408d-acdf-4350c9785f12","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 236.77617%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

However, over time, these caches can grow large and take up a lot of space.

[{"selector":"#anim-b964faf8-0972-4f3c-9fe1-f5fdfef4657d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-94cd1904-d755-4d09-8f0b-47306c087606","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 297.54178%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

You can clear app caches to free up space without affecting your apps' performance.

Compress your photos. Most phones have a built-in feature that allows you to compress your photos without sacrificing too much quality.

Move photos to an SD card. If your phone has an SD card slot, you can move your photos to the SD card to free up space on your phone's internal storage
