Android User’s Guide

You manage how applications use storage memory directly and indirectly in many
ways as you use your phone, for example, by:

G

Installing or uninstalling applications (see “Market” on page 341 and “Uninstall an
application” on page 52)

G

Downloading files in Browser, Gmail, and other applications

G

Creating files (for example, by taking pictures)

G

Deleting downloaded files or files you created (see “Managing downloads” on
page 54
and the documentation for the applications you use)

G

Using a computer to copy files to or delete files from your USB storage or SD card
(see “Connecting to a computer via USB” on page 67)

G

Changing whether an application is installed in internal storage or in your phone’s
USB storage or SD card, if the application supports it (see “Change where an appli-
cation is stored” on page 52)

You rarely need to manage how applications use RAM: the operating system does this
for you. But you can monitor how applications use RAM and stop them if they
misbehave as described in “Stop a misbehaving application” on page 52.
