Depending on the characteristics of your android device camera, each photo on your phone can take at least 3 MB of your phone disk storage space. There are a few online services that can store your entire photo gallery or your personal images.

If you do not want to put your photos on the cloud for privacy reasons, then you can also transfer them to your computer with a simple USB cable.
Application data
When you install new application, it will create a folder to store your personal preferences for that app. But in addition, smartphone applications also store cached data. For example, a video application will store the videos that you are looking at in cache and launch them faster next time. But we will not watch the same video several times in a row, so you can delete this cached data without any problem to increase your phone free space.
To delete the cache, you are offered 2 applications. The first is 1Tap Cleaner which is a Widget that removes all hidden cache files in one Tap. This application also displays the amount of cache available as well as the text logs. In addition, it also allows you to uninstall any apps without Google Play.
