By Emanuela Gallo '19 Tired of dealing with pop-ups reminding you of your declining space every time you just want to take a picture on your phone? To all my fellow 16GB users, these are some tips and tricks on making more space on your phone.
2. Delete pictures This also seems obvious, but it’s important to try to cut down your Camera Roll space, as it usually takes up the most. You don’t need all those pictures from your latest friend group photoshoot; delete any doubles, ones where people aren’t looking, and so on. 3. Go through apps to minimize their size. For the apps you can’t bear to part with, or are unable to delete because Apple has put them there, try to minimize the space they take up. Delete old podcasts you’re done listening to, ibooks you’ve finished reading, old notes you don’t need anymore, reminders you’ve already done, calendar events that have passed, and clear conversations on Snapchat. If you have Whatsapp, archived chats still take up space on your phone. Make sure to delete them completely. 4. Delete your old messages I know it might be hard to delete those month-old conversations, but space takes sacrifice! Messages take up more space than you think. Make it a routine to delete old conversations you don’t need anymore. 5. Trade in your iTunes library for a streaming service. While downloading another music app will take up space, streaming songs takes up significantly less than having them actually downloaded. There are a myriad of apps to choose from, including Spotify, Pandora, Amazon Music (available should you have Amazon Prime), and Soundcloud. 6. Upload all your pictures to Google Photos and delete them in Camera Roll. Google photos is reliable app where you are able to upload, backup, access and organize all your pictures easily. Similarly to streaming, using this app takes up less space than actually having the pictures in your Camera Roll. Keep in mind, however, that you won’t be able to access your photos unless you have an internet or service connection.
