Turn Your 16GB Phone to Unlimited Storage Freely

The modern smartphones are with latest techs, while the problem of the storage is still there. No matter, here we’ve the solution on turn your 16GB phone to unlimited storage for totally free.

The modern smartphones are full of technologies, while the problem of the storage is still there. For e.g when you buy a phone, whether it’s a Pixel, iPhone, Android or whatever, of course, you’re dazed between choosing the storage plans like should I get a 16GB or 32GB or maybe more? In addition, they storages aren’t cheap to just get one of greater storage plans. In this case, you’re compelled to take a 16GB or 32GB storage which is frustrating. This is what most of the smartphones are having problem with especially iPhone users that they don’t have the option again to expand the storage, while the Android users have the option to expand with SD card. This problem is getting bigger and bigger day by day because everyday when using phone, you’re totally depending on storage from capturing a photo upto taking notes. It means that if you’ve been using your phone actively for at least 3 to 4 months or more, you are suffering from limited storage or sacrificing old data. Don’t worry, because in this article I’m going to show you the solution on how to turn your 16GB or 32GB phone to unlimited storage by just three apps.

Turn Your 16GB Phone to Unlimited Storage

There are plenty ways and apps to expand your phone storage to unlimited storage and I have tested out them. But among them, I have pick up the one I have used and recommend for you. I see, there isn’t any guide similar to our article and instead, there is an article on how to survive with 16GB storage in your phone, which is lol. So let’s get started.

  • 1. Google Photos – Unlimited Photo & Video Storage

The media in your phone is the largest part of the storage and if I’m not wrong it takes the major part of storage. So what better than Google Photos, which offers unlimited photo & video auto backup service free without any charges. It offers the app for iOS, Android, Windows, Mac which is fantastic. Also, it has sharing options and auto functions which can recognize everyone and arrange items automatically.

Now you can use Google Photos on your Windows and Mac too which are newly added and start backing up your photos & videos to unlimited cloud storage totally free. It takes no space in your phone and stores photos & videos automatically. But also it has paid options if you want to store your photos and videos to their original quality if they which are above 16MP and videos larger than 1920x1080P then you will need to select the paid option but personally I prefer and recommend the first option to use unlimited free option which is great for your smartphone because modern smartphones such as Samsung, iPhone, Pixel doesn’t take picture above 12MP and videos above 4K. All you need to get started is install the app and sign in with your Google Account. To learn more and see the guide how to use and set it up, check out the article below, where there is explained fully with screenshots.

  • 2. Google Drive – Cloud Storage & File Backup for Photos, Docs & More

The Google Drive is another great cloud storage and file backup like Google Photos. Both are Google’s service and are perfect! The difference between the Google Drive and Google Photos is just between their storage. While the Google Photos provides unlimited photo and video storage for 16MP and 1080P videos, but the Google Drive provides 15GB storage free and for more you’ve to upgrade to paid plans. No matter, because we’ve got a perfect suggestion for you, so to get the full backup of photos and videos, do install and use Google Photos to save them completely into unlimited storage and if you had documents, pdfs, voice memos or anything else, just upload them to Google Drive where you have the 15GB full and free option. The Google Drive comes with Android or iOS smartphone already but if you didn’t find it then download it now.

  • 3. Dropbox

Another great cloud storage is Dropbox, which is really great. I have used Dropbox for almost 2 years and I like to use it beside Google Photos and Google Drive. So how I manage to use them is very easy, like, I use Google Photos to backup my photos & videos and for my documents, notes, music etc I use Google Drive, moreover, for my additional files I use Dropbox and the services below which makes my smartphone storage unlimited. Ok, Dropbox offers a measle of 2GB of free storage and you can raise it upto 16GB by linking your social media accounts and referring friends to join the service. Dropbox Business subscriptions allow users to collaborate on work as well as giving each person unlimited space in a personal Dropbox account. There are also new features and functions for recovery and versioning.

The macOS Sierra upgraded from macOS El Capitan. Later on, in 2017, Apple announced significant changes to macOS Sierra and launched 10.13 version with more flexibility and reliable features.

In order to install it, they need some files which include the macOS High Sierra VMDK. Ok, it is not difficult to download, but of course, it is hard to find.
