Find large files

See the biggest files on your phone, so you can decide what to move to a computer or delete.

A few large files, such as old videos, downloaded films or backups, often take more space than thousands of photos.

List large files

1. On the home screen, tap Large files. SpaceSweep shows Measuring your files… while it scans.

2. Choose a size: files over 10 MB, 50 MB (the default), 100 MB or 500 MB. Changing it filters the list straight away, with no new scan.

3. Use the type filters, from All to images, videos, audio, documents or archives, to narrow the list.

If nothing is that big, SpaceSweep says No files this large.

Delete what you do not need

1. Tap the files you want to delete to tick them.

2. Check the count and size in the bar at the bottom.

3. Tap Delete. The dialog warns that deleted files cannot be recovered. Tap Delete to confirm.

With a filter on, only the files you can see are deleted.

TIP

Large files are often ones you want to keep, just not on the phone. Copy videos and backups to a computer or cloud storage first, check the copy opens, then delete them here.
