Hi,
Just signed up for forum. Need some help advice etc. I have an ongoing issue with a lack of storage on the phone memory on Lumia 640 which I think may eventually mean I have to move on to a new phone. Given the the fact that Microsoft are basically ditching lumia phones this will probably entail kissing goodbye to Windows and finally turning to Android.
The problem with the lack of storage crops up every time there is a phone update,which has just occurred. This time I had to clear some space before I could update, I had to clear 700 mb.
It is basically email, calendar and Edge that take up large amounts of storage on my phone, email/calendar 850mb and 250mb with Edge. I cleared as much as I could, deleting emails and history and favourites etc but I just don't seem to be able to reduce it much.
Can anybody suggest how I can reduce the storage on these apps and what I can do generally to reduce storage. I have cleared photos, Whatsapp and other storage hogging apps. I would like to uninstall or move some of the preloaded Microsoft apps like Groove and Xbox that I don't use but it appears to be impossible.
Any help appreciated.
