[App] [2.3+] Storage Truth topic

It's been going on for years - our forum and others continue to receive hundreds of requests every day from new and experienced Android users led into confusion over their device storage, with questions like these:

• I have a 32 GB SD card, why can't I install all of the apps I want? It keeps telling me I'm out of space!


• I have a 4 GB phone, I don't have that many apps, but it says I'm out of space again. WHY?


• I have an 8 GB tablet and I can't make heads or tails out of what's up! I've looked at my settings and it says I have all sorts of storage! What the heck is up here?


• And the follow-on questions - Is it broken? Did I get ripped off?

Sound familiar?

I bet it does, it's probably hit all of us at some point - and is still hitting people every day.

The truth is that apps telling you about your storage fall into one of two categories:

• Apps trying to be too friendly in helping you, designed really to tell you about your media storage


• Apps that bury the real information inside screens and popups that try to tell you everything about your phone

The problem is simple:

• The first type of app is not telling you the right story


• By the time you understand the second type, you already know the answers


• The deck is stacked against you, it's a complicated mess

Having folks type and interpret the Linux df command output from an adb shell or an on-device terminal emulator is an option, but is not always effective:

• Scary for a lot of people


• Complicated


• Difficult to read


• Information overload

So, we sat down and designed a simple, straight-forward app that shows you how much storage space you have on your device for apps that you want to install or update.

The results are shockingly simple and we call it Storage Truth.
