My memory on my phone became full even there's no file or save in it.

Common Memory Hogs

Phones often have internal storage and removal memory such as SD cards. In general, when you install apps on the phone, those are stored on your phone's internal memory. Like software, apps vary in size. Some can quickly take up large chunks of space. Not only can an app take up space, so can the information it downloads. Other common memory hogs include photos, videos, ringtones, and audio recordings. For example, if your phone is equipped with a high resolution camera, the photos it takes could be much larger than you realize.

Remove Unwanted Apps

To free up space on your phone, start by removing any app you now longer want or use. It's not uncommon to download an app only to find it's not as useful as you had hoped. Some users delete them right away while others allow the unwanted apps to accumulate.

Clean the Phone's Cache

Like computers, phones store temporary files in a cache to improve performance. The cache can become cluttered with junk, so it's not a bad idea to clear it once in a while. Doing so will also free up some of your phone's memory. The process varies based on the type of phone you have. In general, look in your phone's menu > settings > privacy section for a clear cache option. Similarly, it's not a bad idea to look at the cache for individual apps to see if there's an option to clear the data.

Remove Large Files

If you take a lot of photos and videos with your phone, transfer those to your PC using your USB cable and then remove them from your phone. Video files can quickly fill up memory space, so pay attention to those. In addition, you may want to remove unwanted ringtones and music files.
