Free up memory space
The memory in your device tends to fill up as a result of normal usage. If
your phone starts to slow down, or applications suddenly shut down, con-
sider the following:
Delete pictures
• If you use your phone to take a lot of pictures, remember to back
them up to your computer every now and again. Not only will this pre-
vent you from losing any photos if anything were to happen to your
phone, but it also gives you the opportunity to delete them from your
phone and free up space. You can access your pictures by simply
plugging your phone into your computer via a USB cable, see Con-
nect the phone to a computer, p.55.
• There are also several services to use if you want to back up your
photos – in many cases, automatically. Google, for example, has an
automatic upload feature that will put your photos into a private al-
bum on Google+, and even create mini-albums for you.
Clear the cache memory
What is cache? When you are surfing the web or using apps on your
phone’s browser, those websites that you visit will be stored on your
phone in an area of memory called cache. The reason is that the next
time you visit the same website or app the phone will load it from cache
memory instead of downloading everything again from the server, which
takes up time and bandwidth.
