“Warning! You are running low on storage space!”
where did that gigabyte and a half go?!
I needed that gigabyte and a half!
I uninstalled a couple apps I don’t really use and it’s now dropped to 7.45 GB, which stopped its complaints. (Presumably the complaining threshold is 7.5.) But…goddammit, one of the reasons I got this phone was so that I would stop having to juggle app installations.
(Fuck, I might have to wade back into the morass that is configuring an SD card on Android 6.0, so I can convince it to keep some app data there. Apparently configuring it to store app data on the SD card slows the phone down unless you have a high-speed SD card. I do not have a high-speed SD card, and I doubt we have any lying around. Even if I obtained a suitable card, in order to take SD cards in and out of this model you have to literally tear the phone in half, and it’s a fucking miracle we’ve managed to do it twice with only minor cosmetic damage.)
