Types of storage
Want to know what types of storage you can use for your apps, data, and files?
HTC Desire 500 has these storage types:
Phone
storage
This storage combines both the internal storage, where apps, email, data,
and text messages are stored, and the file storage, where photos, videos,
and music files are kept.
When you are running out of phone storage, you can free up space by
uninstalling apps, changing download settings, or moving files to your
storage card, your computer, or an online storage service.
Storage
card
Use a storage card for storing more files. You can also set apps such as
Camera to store directly to the card.
USB
storage
When you plug in an external USB storage device (such as a USB flash
drive or an SD card reader), you can view photos and videos stored on
the device right from Gallery and play songs stored on the device in
Music. You can also open PDFs and edit Office documents.
You need a special cable to connect HTC Desire 500 and a USB storage
device. HTC Desire 500 supports USB storage devices (except portable
hard drives) up to 64 GB.
Online
storage
If you're using an online storage account that's accessible from
HTC Desire 500, you can store your files to your online storage.
