    Another addendum to the above - the DiscUsage app tells me the system data is now up to 2.07 GB. That's within the space of 7 days.

    As an addendum to my reply above - the DiscUsage app is now telling me the system data is taking up 2.01 GB.

    Thanks. BTW the app shows my internal system data has increased from 1.94 to 1.98 GB in just a few days. Not sure if thats the culprit but I see it is the subject of a number of other threads. (No effective advice given outside of rooting the phone which I refuse to do.) Free internal space...

    Downloaded the app - quite useful. The largest app was facebook using 228 MB. System data is using a total of 1.94 GB. HOWEVER - I saw that 933 MB of SD storage was being used for ".trashes". I put the SD card in my computer, deleted the downloads trash and returned the SD card to the phone...

    Nope. Running OS 6.0.1 Having a devil of a time attaching screenshot as requested. "PNG image has the incorrect file extension" is what pops up when I try. I'm afraid the link you provided didn't take me to a thread that gave any direction. Screenshot would show 12.53 GB used out of 16.00...

    Okay, didn't know that. Had a look. There were only 7 thumbnails in there. Removed them anyway. No change. Checked the size of the folders in My Files, Android was the largest at 180 mb, every other folder was a great deal smaller (under 40 mb - mainly a lot less). It's a conundrum.

    Thanks for that. Have followed your advice. Found nothing in the DCIM file. Just a screenshot folder which was empty. So no joy there. Also looked through the downloads folder. Nothing there that would take up a gb of memory.

    Galaxy A3 storage keeps filling

    I noticed my Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) internal storage was getting quite full. I shifted all the apps I could to the SD card, deleted unnecessary apps, shifted the photos to SD card, deleted all videos and started clearing the cache regularly. Despite there now being more space, the free space...
