Freeing up storage space
As you use HTC Desire 12, you'll accumulate data and fill its storage capacity over time. Here are
some tips on how to free up phone storage space.
Manage photos and videos
§ After taking continuous camera shots, keep only the best shot. Discard the rest, if you don't
need them.
§ After editing a photo or trimming a video, the original file is kept. Delete original files or
move them elsewhere, such as to your computer.
§ If you're only sending videos through MMS, use a lower resolution. Hi-res video takes up
more space.
Remove unused themes
Themes can quickly consume up storage space because themes can include images, sounds and
icons. Remove themes you're not using. See Deleting a theme in
apps/themes/.
Remove or disable apps
Uninstall apps that you've downloaded if no longer need them. See
Preinstalled apps can be disabled when you're not using them. See
Move apps to the storage card
Third-party apps that you've downloaded and installed can be moved to the storage card if you've
set up the card as internal storage. See

Moving an app to or from the storage card
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.
