Memory is associated with running applications, and storage is used to install and save data. Insufficient space and running lag need to be judged separately.
Understand the essentials
Adding storage does not directly increase application running memory; network lag is not necessarily caused by these two items.
A practical example
Hypothetical example: the installation failure prompts that there is insufficient space, and the application is reloaded after switching between multiple applications, which are different phenomena.
What to check or try
- Read the error message clearly.
- Check the space and running status separately.
- Test with the same app.
- Then decide the direction of treatment.
If the application prompts that the storage is insufficient, check the downloads and media first, and do not change the running restrictions at will; if the application is reloaded after switching, then observe whether it is terminated by the system. Describing the problem with specific behaviors is more helpful in locating it than saying "the configuration is not working".
An easy-to-miss detail
Don't rely solely on the nominal memory to determine how many applications can actually run simultaneously.
