5 ways to free up space on Android

space on Android
if you have a smartphone with Android and those concerned with optimizing the space available, you can perform five fairly simple and effective steps to free up memory on your phone. In the next post we will show in detail the 5 options that will help you improve the performance of the memory of your Smartphone or Tablet.

Move to the SD card applications
by default applications are installed directly on the device's memory, but it is also true that many can move (especially heavier) to the SD card. Many of the apps should work fine after move, but there are two things to note: access to memory (mass storage) via USB and in that case moved apps to the card just stop working, and can be moved applications to the memory card in case the developer has the option to enable this.  try this, go to the screen "Applications" in the "Settings" then select "Manage Applications" to free enough space at once, press the menu key on your phone and select "Sort by size". Mark or applications that wish to move and finally click the "Move to memory card."

Clearing the cache of applications
at the same details screen applications is the "Delete Cache" that enables the removal of all temporary files, making the saved settings when using the application is removed. I recommend not implementing this method in applications that store information added by you, such as notes and agenda, because this will restore the state of the same by removing the stored information.

Uninstall applications
the point may be obvious, but many applications installed that use can not even take up space unnecessarily. Erase is the quickest and most effective to gain more space in the cell. Even if the application has been purchased, it can be uninstalled without fear and continue to be available for download at no extra cost from Google Play. To uninstall an application, simply select the "Uninstall we see in the same place as the above options to Delete and Move Cache to SD.

Storing photos on Picasa
If you capture a lot of pictures with your smartphone, but do not have a habit of transferring everything to a computer, know that it can free up much space in the memory of your mobile device. You can use the USB cable that came with the device for connection and the process is similar to transfer data from a pen drive. If you do not want to move anything into your computer and prefer to keep your photos in the "nuve" you can do that without installing extra applications. In the native application "Gallery", you have the option to upload photos to your Picasa account.

For that you must press the button meny and select the albums or photos you want to move and then press the "More" and then "Share" option to view Picasa.

Controls the memory usage
Apps like Disk Usage are able to display the folders and files take up more space on the device but this information can also be obtained via the "Settings" then "Storage" in Android.
