This can cause your phone\u2019s performance to drop, making it act as if it has prematurely aged. If your phone storage has recently become too full, then it\u2019s time to free up some space on your device. The first step you should take to remedy this issue is to remove junk files from your phone. Use Quick Cleanup to instantly remove unnecessary files:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"psafe:\/\/launch\/cleanup\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9851\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9851\" src=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/remove-junk-files-300x68.jpg\" alt=\"remove-junk-files\" width=\"300\" height=\"68\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/remove-junk-files-300x68.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/remove-junk-files.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have a lot of apps on your phone, these apps can quickly bloat from storing all of these unnecessary files.

If you have old social networking apps, ridesharing apps, games, photo-editing apps, and more that you no longer use, then it\u2019s time to delete them from your phone. If you change your mind and want to redownload an old app that you paid for, you won\u2019t have to pay for the app again; all of your apps are saved to your account. Click here to use App Manager to quickly evaluate the apps on your phone and delete any that you no longer want:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"psafe:\/\/launch\/app_manager\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9241\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9241\" src=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Deeplink_unusedapps-300x63.png\" alt=\"Deeplink_unusedapps\" width=\"300\" height=\"63\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Deeplink_unusedapps-300x63.png 300w, https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Deeplink_unusedapps.png 378w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><b>Step 3: Remove Videos, Photos, and Music<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before removing any files, make sure that any photos, podcasts, music files, or videos that you want to keep are backed up to another location. You may want to backup these files to your PC, laptop, or an external hard drive. Now, evaluate the media files on your device: are you actually using all of these files? Photos, videos, and music can take up a lot of space on your device. Choose a select number of these files to keep on your device \u2014 if you regularly use them \u2014 and delete the rest. You don\u2019t really need to keep HD photos from your recent trip abroad, videos of your friends goofing off, or half of your music library on your phone. If you still want access to these files, though, store them in the cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019ve received the dreaded error that your phone storage space is full.
