Storage Management

I need a new phone. My storage keeps getting full. Apple is going to stop supporting mine. Outside of those issues it is perfectly fine for me. I wouldn’t get a new phone otherwise.

Here’s the problem. Russ says I should wait for the IPhone 16 since it is going to be such a big departure from the 15. I would like to have a new phone when I go to my best friend’s daughter’s wedding, but the timing is not right. So I will go with my old phone.

My old phone still takes great photos, but my storage is full. I keep deleting things and it fills right back up. I hate that I have to have apps to get into museums. I don’t need the app, just let me buy a ticket and come in.

People send me videos. I watch them, but forget to delete them. Someone how I mistakenly store them. I can’t tell you how many times I mistakenly take a screen shot. It gets stored. I listen to books and they are stored. Phone management takes up way too much of my time.

What I really hate is as soon as I get a new phone they will announce what new features will be on the next one and I will want those. I won’t succumb to getting a new phone every year just to get what little improvements have been made, but I do wish they would wait a little more than a year before releasing new and improved phones.

It’s not social media that takes up my time, it’s storage management. UGH!

    I hope your phone makes it to the 16, that is so frustrating

    Thanks for the advice. I need a new phone and will probably wait for the I phone 16. I have an android. It will be a big switch, but I think it’s time. (I have heard Apple is easier, and that is what I want.) My phone will be 8 years old in November. It will be time (if it lasts that long).
