Short answer: Find large files and unused apps with the phone’s built-in storage tools.
Try these steps
- Open Storage in Settings and review which categories are largest.
- Remove downloads you no longer need and uninstall unused apps after checking their stored data.
- Verify cloud copies before removing original photos or videos. Review Trash or Recently deleted folders before permanent deletion.
When to ask for help
