Making more storage space

As you use HTC Desire 601, you'll accumulate data and fill its storage capacity over
time. Here are some tips on how to increase storage space.
Run the storage wizard
Free up space in the phone storage by uninstalling apps and deleting files you no
longer want to keep. In Settings, tap Storage > Make more space.
Store files in Google Drive
Photos, email attachments, and other documents can be stored in Google Drive and
accessed anywhere you are. You can set the Camera app to automatically upload
photos to Google Drive.
Google Drive is a third-party app and is not provided by or associated with HTC
Corporation.

Manage photos and videos

§ Set the Camera app to automatically upload to a photo-sharing site or online
storage. You can retrieve them from the photo-sharing site or online storage
when needed.
Using data services while uploading photos and videos may be costly. You may
want to connect to Wi-Fi or disable auto upload of camera shots if you have a
limited data plan.
§ After taking continuous camera shots, keep only the best shot and discard the
rest.
§ After editing a photo or trimming a video, the original file is kept. You can delete
original files or move them to online storage or to your computer.
§ If you are only sending videos through MMS, use a lower resolution. High-
resolution video takes up more space. In Camera settings, tap Video Quality to
change the resolution.
Back up apps data
Keep only the most recent data from apps on HTC Desire 601. You can back up
calendars, contacts, and bookmarks or export text messages, and personal
dictionaries.
Disable some apps
Apps, even if not used often, may be running in the background and downloading
data into the phone storage. If the app cannot be removed, you can disable it. In
Settings, tap Apps and then swipe to All. Select the app you want to disable, and then
tap Disable.
