I just switched to iOS after being Android for a while. Current Android Settings are great, at least in stock Android. They've finessed them over the years. They were poor two or three versions ago for sure.

- Nullabillity 10y agoHuh? The user data partitions were merged years ago.
- flukus 10y agoThe space the app is using on SD is being lumped in with the internal space. It's telling me audible is using tonnes of space but that's all on SD. And don't get me started on the shitty Google apps that can't be removed or moved to SD.
- digi_owl 10y agoSadly the Android storage terminology is a mess. These days what comes up as the SD is more correctly a folder on the emmc (internal storage). Its just that for legacy reasons it is treated as the primary removable storage by Android. There is a Android/data/"app vendor uri"/ tree within that simulated SD that is used as a dumping ground for various files.
- flukus 10y agoSo apps that think they're storing things on SD are actually using internal storage? How do I actually use the SD card then?
