How to Check Available Storage Space on Android
Checking the available space on your Android smartphone is very easy. You must first access the Settings menu using the gear-like icon, either on the home screen or the app drawer, also called your Android phone’s app drawer. Then swipe down the screen until you find the “Storage”option. Then tap on the “Phone Storage”option. On some versions, you’ll see an “Internal Memory”option instead. Names may vary depending on the manufacturer.
At the top, in the Phone Storage section, you’ll see “Total space”- shows the total amount of internal memory of the device and “Available”- shows the remaining space that you can use to install applications, media files and system data. The memory of an Android device is also divided into different storage partitions. In this way, you will be able to see the space occupied by files of each type on the device. Handy when you want to free up space on your smartphone.
Applications is the first section and displays the amount of space used by installed applications. By clicking on it, you will be automatically redirected to the control screen for all applications on the device. On this page, you can select an app and then click the “Uninstall”button on the top right corner of the screen to remove the app and free up space. The same goes for “Images, Videos”and “Audio”. In “Cached Data”you will find all temporary files used by the device and applications. And in “Miscellaneous”all other files.
If you have an SD card, you can also see how much free space it has. To do this, you need to go to the “SD card”section, which is located in the “Phone storage”section. The “Total space”section shows the total amount of memory on the SD card, while the “Available”section shows the remaining space. You can also remove or format the SD card. After formatting the SD card, all data on it will be deleted.

You can see a list of recommendations for optimizing your device’s storage, followed by a list of installed apps and the amount of storage they’re taking up.

From there, you can uninstall the app (which saves documents and data) or uninstall the app (deletes the app and its data).
If your device is running out of space and can’t free up space, you might see the Warning message Storage is almost full.
