Since mobile phones entered the smart era, mobile phone storage space has grown year by year like blowing a balloon. Let’s take Apple mobile phones as an example. In the early years, Apple’s 3GS only had 16G memory (about the type of memory, which is explained below), and then it increased year by year like a balloon. 32G, 64G and even now mainstream models have large storage spaces of 512G, but the problem is. With such a large storage space, users still complain that their phones are full again and are not enough. Why is this? What app is secretly swallowing our memory behind it?
What is mobile phone memory?
Whether it is a computer or a mobile phone, there is memory, and memory is divided into ROM and RAM.
RAM (and acess memory 6) is the Chinese translation of random memory, which is the running memory in our mobile phone, the operating system and various software of the mobile phone must be stored and used in this memory. After power off, we can understand it as an ergonomic memory.
ROM (read only memory) Chinese translation is read-only memory , which is the storage memory in our mobile phone, and all files are stored in this memory. Photos, documents, program files, etc. are all here. After the mobile phone is turned on, the operating system stored in the ROM, such as the IOS of Apple and the ANDROID of Android, will be transferred into RAM to run. When you want to play games, the same is true. Read from ROM and then write RAM. We can understand this process as the running process of the mobile phone
. Both RAM and ROM are getting bigger and bigger. Even so, we still don’t think it’s enough.
What APP swallowed up the mobile phone memory?
ROM can be understood as the USB drive and memory card in the mobile phone (early mobile phones could expand the memory card to increase the ROM space). Important files are all in it, but why do our mobile phones remind us from time to time that the memory is full and needs to be cleaned. The problem is that we install a lot of application software on our mobile phones every day. There are countless instant messaging software for chatting, office software for work, learning and daily life. But what app is swallowing our ROM? Instant communication software accounts for the majority, we might as well open the phone to see if that is the case! It may only cost a few hundred megabytes when it is first installed, but after using it for a period of time, this type of APP will expand to several G or even hundreds of G, which is extremely terrifying. The reason is simple. Various chat groups, various pictures, videos, and audio will be temporarily stored. If you don’t clean up, it won’t get bigger and bigger.
What method can solve memory anxiety?
Memory anxiety is not just ROM anxiety. Less ROM will make it impossible for us to take photos and videos, and we need to clean up some of the space before we can use it. Insufficient RAM will cause the phone to become card-like, and it will become very slow when opening the software or even the phone. No matter what point it is, it will cause us to have memory anxiety. So how do we solve memory anxiety?
1. Choose a mobile operating system that suits you. Currently, the common mobile operating systems on the market are only , Huawei , , Hongmeng , Apple's IOS, and Android. Users with conditions can try it out and choose the one they think is the best.
2. Develop the habit of cleaning useless data regularly. Useless photos, useless APPs, and commonly used APP background data must be cleaned up to keep the mobile phone smooth.
3. Timely transfer to the computer. The storage space of the mobile phone is limited. Compared with the large space of computer hard drive , the mobile phone is still a child. Re-transferring the information in time can keep the mobile phone smooth. If you don’t have a computer, you can rent a reliable network disk to transfer important information.
No matter what kind of mobile phones and operating systems we use, in fact, we can develop the habit of regular cleaning and transfer storage to truly overcome memory anxiety and keep the phone young.
