iPhones. The option of not having a microSD card
slot adds to the injury.
As more consumers are buying iPhones, mostly

something they learn to treasure overtime. Here

For those who wish to carry lots of movies, songs,
books on their iPhone, a Wi-Fi card reader or
storage drive is priceless. There are several options
available in Rs 2,000 and Rs 3,000 price range from
Kingston and SanDisk.

drive or microSD cards wirelessly on their phones.

3. Back up and delete old photos

Camera photos accumulate overtime and tend to
consume a lot of space. It is always a good practice
to backup old photos on Google Drive or Dropbox
and delete them from the device. Alternatively, this
is also where the Wi-Fi hard drive will come handy.

4. Delete old messages (iMessages/ SMS)

Not every old message is important. While
messages may not consume GBs but they do
consume noticeable amount of space, especially
iMessages. It is good to delete them and make way
for a new app. Also, in the Settings menu under
Messages, users can 'opt out' of never delete
messages automatically.

5. Get rid of unnecessary apps

Apps consume a lot of real estate in any
smartphone. For 16GB iPhone users, it makes no
sense in keeping unnecessary apps or the ones
which are hardly used.
