Problem:I just recently purchased a Galaxy J7 to replace my note 3. It has 16g of storage and I put a sd card in also with 16g. My problem is I keep getting a message that I’m running out of storage. I moved all apps that I could to the sd card but some apps that should can’t be moved. I also deleted or moved all docs, photos, etc. Is there anything else I can do?

- Tap Settings > Device maintenance.
- Tap Storage.
- View the Available space value.
For Android Marshmallow
- From any Home screen, tap the Apps icon.
- Tap Settings.
- Tap Storage.
- View the Available space value.
You can clear the cache and data of the app or group of apps that are using up too much space. You can also opt to uninstall them if you are not really using them.
You should also clear out some data on your phone by performing the following steps.
- Delete unnecessary text messages and picture messages
