Storage Analyser
What Storage Analyser is
Storage Analyser is an Android app for finding where space is used on a phone or tablet and managing files. It lists available storage devices and can show total, used, and available capacity in a pie chart. Users can drill into folders to see the proportion occupied by each file or subfolder, then delete, copy, cut, or move selected items between storage locations. Where the device permits access, the app scans external storage such as SD cards, thumb drives, and hard drives. Pro can scan installed apps and show each app’s installed size, data, and cache; Android requires Usage Access for that scan. By default, private app file contents cannot be inspected. Rooted devices can enable root access for all folders, while root write access is off by default. The free plan costs nothing and contains ads. The maker is based in Reading, United Kingdom. The Google Play listing notes performance issues on some devices when deleting or modifying files.
