HOW TO USE A 64 GB IPAD EVERY DAY AND STILL HAVE SPACE LEFT OVER


FIRST: AN IPAD IS NEITHER AN IPHONE NOR A STORAGE UNIT

iPad Air 5

The way you use an iPad is not the same as how you use an iPhone.

>The iPhone always goes with you in your pocket, the iPad does not.
>The iPhone is your photo and video camera, the iPad is not.
>The iPhone is your main MESSAGING device, the iPad is not.
>The iPad is your video editor, the iPhone is not.
>The iPad is your device for watching videos and browsing the Internet, the iPhone is not.

The iPad should not be a storage unit. You should:

  • Only have the necessary apps
  • Have some «cloud» to store multimedia and files. A flash drive also works.

I HAVE MORE THAN 21 GB (OF 64) FREE


Firstly, I control the apps I need and not one more. Even so, I have Telegram and Signal duplicated on iPhone and iPad, but not WhatsApp (fortunately, there is no WhatsApp for iPad).

Secondly, my photos and videos go from the iPhone to a cloud and are always available there.

Thirdly, when I edit videos on the iPad, I save them on an external SSD drive.

Fourthly, every few months, I empty the chats of Telegram and Signal that accumulate photos, videos, etc., and also clear Safari’s cache.

Fifthly, my iCloud is half empty because the photos go to another cloud and documents or PDFs as well.

It’s true that I don’t play games and only have a small game on the iPhone for boring waits.

IT’S IMPORTANT TO HAVE ENOUGH SPACE ON THE IPHONE, LESS IS NEEDED ON THE IPAD

If you have at least 128 GB on your iPhone and some cloud, you can manage with 64GB on the iPad.
