Making more storage space
As you use HTC One, you'll accumulate data and fill its storage capacity over time.
Here are some tips on how to increase storage space.
Run the storage wizard
Free up space in the storage by uninstalling apps and deleting files you no longer
want to keep. In Settings, tap Storage > Make more space.
Manage photos and videos
§ After taking continuous camera shots, keep only the best shot. Discard the rest,
if you don't need them.
§ After editing a photo or trimming a video, the original file is kept. Delete original
files or move them elsewhere, such as to your computer.
§ If you're only sending videos through MMS, use a lower resolution. Hi-res video
takes up more space. In Camera settings, tap Video Quality to change the
resolution.
Back up data and files
Keep only the most recent data in your apps and files that you often need to use. You
can back up your other data and files. For some tips, see Ways of backing up files,
data, and settings on page 125.
Disable some apps
See Disabling an app on page 180.
About storage encryption
On the phone storage, you can encrypt data such as your accounts, settings,
downloaded apps and their data, media, and other files. On a storage card, you can
only encrypt files.
Set a lock screen PIN or password before you start encryption. Fully charge the
battery first, or keep HTC One connected to the power adapter during encryption.
This process may take about an hour or so.
You cannot undo encryption on the phone storage. If you want to return to an
unencrypted phone, you must perform a factory reset.
Once you enable storage card encryption, only new files added after encryption will
be encrypted. Files already on the card will not be encrypted. Also, storage card
encryption doesn't reformat or erase your card. Encrypted files on the storage card
can only be opened by the phone that encrypted them.
How to encrypt
1. Go to Settings, and then tap Storage.
2. Tap Phone storage encryption. Or, tap Encrypt SD card content.
