One of such additions Google recently rolled out is a new storage management screen inside the Play Store, which brought along with it the easiest way to get rid of multiple apps at once. Here’s how to use it. The new dashboard has been tucked away under one of the tabs available in the My Apps and Games section on the Play Store. The option for that section itself can be found in the left navigation drawer. There, swipe right to reach the Installed page, and at the top, you will have a bar that tells you how much storage you’ve left on your phone. As you can guess, the majority of users wouldn’t have discovered it ever. Tapping the storage indicator will take you to a list of all the apps installed on your phone, which Google automatically sorts based on how often you launch them and how many bytes they consume. Here, you can select all the apps you’d like to uninstall, and as soon as you hit the Free Up button present at the bottom, they will be gone in just a second or two, irrespective of the size. There are no pop-ups or confirmations, so be careful. Apart from that, you have the ability to switch the order and view the list as per a couple of specific factors such as alphabetical, data usage, and size. You will need to be on the latest Play Store and Play Services version to access this feature. However, more often than not, these rollouts happen on the server-side. Therefore, if you still haven’t received it, try clearing the cache or, well, wait for a few days. Similar functionality was previously restricted to a third-party app called UnApp. Although its process is much slower and doesn’t offer Google’s smart sorting method. While, for now, the Free Up Space option lives deep inside the Play Store, we hope Google brings it natively to the settings in future updates. Also Read: How to Delete apps on iPhone/iPad
