Always running out of space on your tablet? Whatever tablet you use, here are some easy ways to get more storage space.<\/p>\n
People use tablets for different things. Some browse the web, others read their email and some use it as an entertainment device.<\/p>\n
If you listen to music, watch moves, take photographs and download apps on your tablet, there\u2019s a high chance your tablets drive will quickly become full and you won\u2019t be able to download anything else.<\/p>\n
Here are some ways to get more storage space for your tablet.<\/p>\n
Free up storage<\/strong><\/p>\n Start by spring cleaning your tablet and removing the apps and files you don\u2019t use. You\u2019ll be surprised how much storage space is taken up with things you don\u2019t even use.<\/p>\n Hardware<\/strong><\/p>\n Memory card<\/strong><\/p>\n If you own an Android tablet such as the Google Nexus 9 or the Tesco Hudl 2 then it may have a slot for a memory card. The advantage of using a card is that you can keep it in your tablet and use to store content and apps.<\/p>\n Invest in a card reader<\/strong><\/p>\n A wireless portable card reader is a good solution if you don\u2019t have a card slot on your device, but want to access extra content such as movies, photos and videos.<\/p>\n Storage drive<\/strong><\/p>\n A storage drive is a good way of backing up things that you don\u2019t use every day. Photographs, for example, take up quite a lot of storage space, but it\u2019s likely you won\u2019t want to look at them all that often.<\/p>\n Plugging in a portable drive enables you to quickly transfer photographs and free up storage space. A portable hard drive is a good place to store music and movies you don\u2019t want to keep on your tablet.<\/p>\n Wireless storage<\/strong><\/p>\n If you don\u2019t want to mess around with cables or formatting, or if you\u2019re an Apple iPad owner, a wireless storage drive will be more convenient.<\/p>\n Apple doesn\u2019t make it easy for iPad users to add extra storage to their tablets. The device doesn\u2019t include a USB port and uses a proprietary charging port, either 30-pin in the iPad 2 or the new Lightning connector.<\/p>\n Cloud storage<\/strong><\/p>\n The advantage of using the cloud to store things is that you aren\u2019t using storage space on your tablet. Instead your files are stored on remote servers, commonly known as the cloud.<\/p>\n Cloud storage has other advantages. Many devices enable you to set up an automatic backup so you don\u2019t have to worry about remembering to copy your files manually. Additionally, in the event you lose your device, you\u2019ll be able to restore your files from backup.<\/p>\n A number of cloud storage providers that offer space without charge.<\/p>\n BT Cloud<\/strong><\/p>\n With BT Cloud, BT customers get 50GB or 500GB storage free depending on the broadband package.<\/p>\n BT Cloud can be used to store photos, music and documents.<\/p>\n You can access BT Cloud from any device with a browser, or via the BT Cloud app which is available for Android, Apple and Windows Phone phones and tablets, using your BT ID. From there you can share your content with family and friends.<\/p>\n Apple iCloud<\/strong><\/p>\n Apple Pad and iPhone users get 5GB of iCloud storage free with their devices.<\/p>\n Google Android<\/strong><\/p>\n Google offers users 15GB storage across Google Drive.<\/p>\n Users of Android tablets, such as the Tesco Hudl, can turn on automatic backups to back up app information, settings and wi-fi passwords by heading to Settings \u2013 Backup & reset \u2013 Back up my data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Always running out of space on your tablet?
