External memory
You can use an external memory card to get more storage space or as a
portable memory. There are many different media card standards, use
only compatible memory cards. Compatible card type for this device: mi-
croSD, microSDHC max 32 GB. SD stands for Secure Digital. Lower-ca-
pacity cards store less information. The phone works with or without an
SD card installed. We suggest you to use a high speed memory card, es-
pecially if used as extended internal memory. Most applications can read
data from a memory card but only certain apps can save files to this type
of memory. You can, for example, set the camera application to save pho-
tos directly to the memory card.
Note! If you insert an external memory, it is recommended you change
the default storage location. This allows you to save more files on your
phone, like pictures and videos. We recommend that you regularly copy
your photos from the phone's internal storage to your computer as a form
of backup, see Connect the phone to a computer, p.37. These files are
found in the DCIM folder on your phone. DCIM stands for Digital Camera
IMages and it is the default directory structure for digital cameras and for
smartphone cameras.
Free up memory space
The memory in your device tends to fill up as a result of normal usage. If
your phone starts to slow down, or applications suddenly shut down, con-
sider the following:
Delete pictures
If you use your phone to take a lot of pictures, remember to back
them up on your computer every now and again. Not only will this
prevent you from losing any photos if anything were to happen to
your phone, but it also gives you the opportunity to delete them from
your phone and free up space. You can access your pictures by sim-
ply plugging your phone into your computer via a USB cable, see
Connect the phone to a computer, p.37.
There are also several services to use if you want to back up your
photos in many cases, automatically. Preloaded to this phone is
the Google application, Photos, that supports unlimited storage,
photo and video back up, and even create mini-albums for you.
