Which is rather disappointing, considering the amount of space on phones hasn't increased much. Back in 2010 when 1 MB was a normal app size, a decent phone had 32 to 64 gb of storage. Now apps are twenty times as big, and a decent phone might have 64 to 128 gb. It's not scaling in sync.
- rtkwe 9y agoApps have never really been the main space hog on phones though if you look at the numbers. Average app size is only ~40 MB and (the numbers are a bit sketchier here) the average person has 30-50 apps on their phone so even if we go to an extreme with multiple times the average apps you've only taken up 10-15% of a phones storage with apps. Anecdotally the main perpetrator for wasted space is content; videos, pictures, and (in my case at 29GB) podcasts. https://www.quora.com/How-many-apps-does-the-average-iPhone-user-have-installed https://www.quora.com/How-many-apps-does-the-average-iPhone-...
