My Phone Enlarges The Size Of Apps And Pictures by horladeji80(op): 9:57pm On Jul 27, 2016
I use a Samsung Galaxy Prime which I purchased some months ago from Samsung showroom in Wise, Abuja. Attached is the phone's specifications.

I recently noticed the phone's processing speed had deteriorated. Upon enquiry I discovered the average size of each picture I take is 1MB. Yes, I mean 1MB! Some pictures I take are as large as 2.2 MB. I have checked my camera's setting and I am presently using the lowest resolution. I even had to download another camera but all to no avail.

I also discovered apps I download become larger in size on my phone. For instance, I downloaded Firstmobile which is supposed to be 24 MB but on my phone it's 84. 77 MB!

YouTube is about 38 MB on my phone while the actual size ought to be 16 MB. Whatsapp is 102 MB as against its default size of 23 MB.

I need your kind advice on what to do to resolve this challenge.

Asking for advise isn't an invitation to being disrespected. If you cant be a little couth in your communication you can as well keep your knowledge to yourself.

[color=#000033]Just shut it. If you aren't a novice, why are you asking such a silly question? Tell me where my post was disrespectful?

That's why you never got any comment from people because your common sense ought to have tell you before opening a thread for it.[/color]
