The user enters the Settings, see what his place is occupied.
He sees “categories” there: applications (well, ok, I have them installed, I don’t mind), images/video/audio (well, okay, and this seems to have it), the system (eh ... of course, but apparently, but apparently Without this, no matter how), cache (well, and about it I heard something ... Fortunately, there is not very much, probably this is normal ...), another (Stop !!! I did not order another ... Oh ... And here are gigabytes ... Oh, here it is where my place was "stolen", I heard somewhere that all Google programmers are the last, obviously stupid "my neighbor Kultskhaker" (and, by the way, He remembered, he said it authoritatively that “they are fools”) that the Android OS constantly “eats” “not correctly” (oh, I don’t remember what kind of memory there was, but “everyone is talking about it”) .. .
Well, everything "found where the dog is buried," shchaz in a quick "Other folder" I will find, delete everything that I "did not order" and I will be happy ...
All this is very naive.
The “tool” for “analyzing” the occupied space that “sits” in the Android OS in Settings, starting from the very beginning of the Android OS until now, is a “tool” at the level of Murzilka magazine as the Great British Encyclopedia.
In fact, it is simple "to the point of madness":
OS looks at all occupied place, checks what files.
All that can be defined as categories: "Programs, audio / saw / pictures, system, cache" calls these words.
And everything (!) The rest calls "Other."
Calls indiscriminately, calls on the residual principle, so long as the amount is amusingly formed, so that errors in the school formula of arithmetic are not "just the minus is equally free".
And when the mounting of two logical partitions of memory is added to this, one available to the user, the other hidden from it, one dedicated "for two" partition of physical memory, with the "inability of the OS to divide how much each of them took place here", then ... magazine "Murzilka" will be closer to the "Funny Pictures".
With this approach, in the "Other" except garbage fall gigabytes of useful files.
