Is your mobile storage memory full? Can't fit any more photos or videos on it or can't store any more loot you've earned in Clash of Clans game? Then here I have a solution for you, a Clash of Clans storage full fix and way to free up space on your mobile device so you can loot more clans, take more photos and store more videos and never run out of storage space again right when it's needed!
There's an app for that! Well actually, there's several apps for that.
Most mobile smartphones come with around 16GB storage space standard today. But this can soon get full up quite quickly when you're taking pictures or recording videos, downloading apps and filling them up with usage data which all takes up space on the internal storage drive. Take those people who are at the 2016 Rio Olympics, all taking pictures and recording videos on their mobiles and they're getting full up and sometimes right at the most crucial moments. Meaning they wasn't able to take a picture or record a full video of the moment Usain Bolt grabbed another gold medal to complete a triple treble!
Let's say for instance, you have an iPhone or iPad with a 16GB storage drive. Once you've got all your apps and games installed, and you've take some nice high res photos and recorded some nice HD videos, before you know it, you're full! You can of course, go on a mad deleting spree, deleting apps you like to have and it can be a real problem.
And this is something Google has been exploiting as well recently in an commercial advertisement that is shown to people at the Olympic stadiums in Rio pitching it as a reason to get their Google Photos App which can be a fix to the storage full issue that the spectators are having since it provides unlimited backup and automatic transfers from your smartphone for every picture snapped and video recorded. But just one of several solutions to get more space and let's talk about some more.
NOTE: This mainly applies for Apple devices (iPhone's/iPad'). Most Android phones don't suffer from this problem because Android mobiles come with external memory slots so you can backup your photos/videos files etc onto them for more space on the phone. Where as Apple devices don't! Although it's said that the iPhone 7 will start with 32GB of storage space instead of 16GB hopefully making this much less of an issue for people.
But here's some solutions to get more free space on your mobile device.
Google Photos App
The Google Photos App came out last year in 2015 and now has over 200 million monthly users. This is probably because of the very generous unlimited storage space that it offers. That also includes free unlimited backup and transfers from your mobile for every photo and video taken on your device. There is also automatic uploading from your PC as well but you will have to connect your device to your PC/laptop first and the images resolution is reduced a little as well but they're still great for making large high quality prints.
Other than this there isn't really issues with the Google Photos App and it provides a great way for you to free up space on your mobile by storing them in the Google app on a Google server somewhere. The app can be a bit tricky to find old photos and videos you've taken though. But the iPhone Camera Roll always was. So as a tip, try to tag the photos you snap and videos you record with some tags to make them easier to find later on.
I was so stuck with my old Samsung Galaxy 2, even after cleaning up catches, removing photos etc I was still getting alert that memory is full and i couldn't do many things. So after I completely removed few applications and restore my phone I used it again... Anyway in mean time I bought J5 which is very good smartphone and running so smooth now

Thanks for sharing this. I now save absolutely everything in the Cloud because I had a bad experience a good number of years back.. think it was 6 years ago?
I was doing bookkeeping for a number of companies,freelancing from home. I had Quickbooks loaded on my laptop and my desktop. In February (yes YEAR end!) both my machines just died (completely) on the same day. Yes I had some backups but I still lost a LOT of work. In addition to that my Quickbooks was out of date so when I wanted help with it they said they couldn't offer me any assistance.
The result was that I lost a lot of my work. I managed to get everything sorted out, you know like you do when just have no other choice. BUT it was painful and an experience I never ever want to repeat.
I have learned from that experience and I changed everything to be online since then. If I take a photo with my phone it immediately uploads it to dropbox so when my phone says it's memory is full I just clean everything out.
I have nothing saved on my machines anymore and it is wonderful. 2 years back I poured a cup of coffee over my laptop. I just went out to the shop and bought another one. Within an hour of losing my machine I was back at work finishing the urgent work I was busy with.
It is a game changer for sure. I currently use Dropbox and I use Google Drive too. Hey MIke Thanks for sharing this.
