Know how to enable auto-archive to free up space from unused apps in Android smartphones

Mumbai: Most smartphones come with a minimum of 128GB internal storage. But, this storage can fill up with important photos, videos, and documents. In Android smartphones, apps also take up a significant amount of space, especially with continuous updates. Many installed apps may go unused for extended periods, occupying valuable phone space.

One can easily solve the problem of full phone storage. For Android users, Google has provided a feature that automatically archives these unused apps from your phone, freeing up space. It works by partially removing unused apps while keeping their icon, user data, and basic functionality intact. Users can enable auto-archive, which can be triggered when the device is low on storage.

Steps to enable auto-archive for unused apps in Android smartphones:

1. Open the Google Play Store on your phone.

2. Click on the profile icon in the top-left corner.

3. Select “Settings” from the options.

4. Tap on “General” at the top.

Scroll down and turn on the “Automatically Archive Apps” toggle.

Once you’ve enabled this feature, unused apps on your phone will be archived. You’ll be able to access the list of archived apps, freeing up your phone’s storage without needing to delete any important documents.
