There are many ways to save storage space with apps on our Xiaomi mobile. to be clear your cache, clear app data or even uninstall the app completely.

In March of this year, Google launched the Play Store. one more tool to save space on our device. It’s all about application archiving and we’ve already seen how it works.

Save space yes, but without deleting apps

This new method created by Google manage the storage used by our appsand instead of having to delete them, they will remain archived in the Play Store, taking up up to 60% less space on our mobile according to Google.

Data of these apps they will continue to exist in our Xiaomibut the storage space occupied by the app itself will no longer bother us and Access anytime by re-downloading, because we will continue to see it on the MIUI home screen. One developer demonstrated how it works:

• on Google Play Store, ‘Manage apps and device’

• When choosing an application we will have two options: remove or archive

• If we choose to uninstall, we will completely delete the app and all its dataas we always do

• If we choose archive APK file replaced by an archived version that we can recover from there or the home screen

Thanks to the new storage saving techniques implemented by Google, we can have more space on our Xiaomi mobile. without the need to delete apps, videos or use an external hard drive or a microSD card.

Application archiving still in betaAnd while we don’t know if it will be compatible with all apps, Google has already warned. will not be available until the end of the year.
