Phone storage

Types of storage
Starting from Android 6.0, there have been some changes on how and where
downloaded apps and their data can be stored.
Phone storage
This is the internal storage which contains the Android system, preinstalled apps,
email, text messages, and cached data from the apps. You can also install apps that
you've downloaded and capture photos, videos, and screenshots to this storage.
Storage card
Use your storage card as a removable storage to store and access your media and other
files on HTC One M9 or any Android phone, or set it up as an extension of the internal
storage. See Should I use the storage card as removable or internal storage? on page
211.
USB storage
You can plug in an external USB storage device such as a USB flash drive or an SD card
reader. You need a special cable to connect HTC One M9 and a USB storage device.
