Types of Storage

Want to know what types of storage you can use for your apps, data, and files? Your phone has
these storage types:
Phone storage. This storage combines both the internal storage, where apps, email, data, and
n
text messages are stored, and the file storage, where photos, videos, and music files are kept.
When you are running out of phone storage, you can free up space by uninstalling apps,
changing download settings, or moving files to your computer or to an online storage service.
USB storage. When you plug in an external USB storage device (such as a USB flash drive or
n
an SD card reader), you can view photos and videos stored on the device right from Gallery and
play songs stored on the device in Music. You can also open PDFs and edit Office documents.
You need a USB On-The-Go micro cable adapter to connect your phone and a USB storage
device. Your phone supports USB storage devices (except portable hard drives) up to 64 GB.
Online storage. If you're using an online storage account that's accessible from your phone,
n
you can store your files to your online storage.

1. Connect your phone to the computer using the supplied USB cable. You'll see options for
