Dropbox's Carousel app now frees up phone storage for you
22 Dec 2014 • engadget.comLet’s say you’re about to shoot a video of your child’s first steps. You launch the camera app on your phone and you’re all set to hit record… but wait, what’s this? A message pops up on your phone that says there’s not enough available storage. Frantically, you head back to your camera roll, delete a bunch of photos you hope you won’t need and rush back to the camera app, praying that you made enough room to capture Junior’s momentous occasion.
I’m sure this has actually happened to someone but it also sounds like a scene plucked straight from TV or the movies. Like in a crime drama when the girl’s car dies late at night and she grabs her cellphone, and you already know that despite being only minutes from LA she will inexplicably have no signal.
