So I could install google docs when I discovered what is taking up the most space in my phone. Is not my pictures as I thought but instead my apps and I don't have any that can be deleted at this time so I guess I'll need to continue using Evernote which is a cloud notebook for the usernames of my friends.
I did just look to see how to do bookmarks on my phone and may try that out a little too.
Picture is some of my late spring flowers.

Pretty flowers. I do that too to free up space for photos.

I was trying to free up space to use bookmarks on my phone but I don't think getting rid of the extra photos will give me enough room even then

@oahuwriter I want to on them either. Anna Gabe's me the suggestion but it's needed more space to use bookmarks on my phone.

I have so many photos on my computer that I am thinking of taking a good many out and placing on a photo stick. Beautiful flowers.

Thanks. The flowers are small but pretty when they all bloom about the same time.
I'm hoping my next phone will have more memory to work with.

I've been doing that lately but not when I first got the phone. My photos are mostly foods eaten or pics of my yard with either snow on the ground or flowers growing.

@MarshaMusselman I also have these photos. I usually delete them if being shared here and there. I don't want to deal with the slow work of a mobile phone.

@Shavkat if I didn't have a mobile phone i wouldn't be able to be here very often as I do most of my mylotting from my phone even when I'm home.

@MarshaMusselman I often watch YouTube Videos, but I have nothing installed, I watch on my computer from my browser.

None are bad for my phone but many use a lot of storage but I need most of them.
Maybe I can afford more memory on the next phone I buy.

None are dangerous but a few take up more space than the rest, like youtube.

I've gotten rid of all my unused apps that I can. The ones I want take up a lot of mb space.

I don't think the images are taking up as much storage as I first thought. Although it probably doesn't hurt taking the extraneous stuff off.
Is apps taking up space and some are needed for work. Nothing is there that's not used.

I am not sure if I will ever get to do all I need to do as far as deletion on devices. It is a concern..glad you got it done.

Is not yet done I barely made a splash. But it also might not help that much either other than making it easier for me to find pictures I still want to use in some way.

The pics don't resides in the sim card. I think the sim card has all my contacts which I'd lose if I tried a larger one. I'm thinking of deleting my fitbit app since I don't check my numbers on it much these days and I can always go to the website instead.

@crazyhorseladycx I don't know exactly or even barely how they operate but I like having a mini computer in my pocket most days.
I now need it for both jobs anyway. There are work arounds for those without smart phones, but I'd rather use my phone.

I've never heard of My Book before. Is it a cloud option?

@thelme55 I would prefer that but it came with my phone and could cause problems is deleted.

I do use most of my apps on my phone. I've deleted youtube before and could delete it again perhaps.

I probably should do that too but I have plenty of other things to attend to instead.

@MarshaMusselman It doesn't take long if you do a few each day.
