  • The Trials and Woes of iPad Storage. Hello everyone. You know I love my iPad, but there's just one thing about it that has started to drive me a little batty. Yes, I'm talking about storage space.

    The iPad reminds me of a tiny basement. You can have all the beautiful furniture you want, but if you don't have room to store your stuff, you'll end up with clutter everywhere. Everyone wants the newest model, the latest of technology, yet somehow we all end up getting a swift kick in the behind when we discover that we're out of storage space.

    I can't tell you how many times I've tried to clear up space on my iPad. You know the routine. You're ready to download that new app, make that new podcast, save new images, make those new videos, only to be greeted with a message that says ‘storage almost full’. The iPad just can't hold everything, and all I wanna do is enjoy the iPad.

    So what do we do? The iPad keeps asking you to update, and you have more iCloud Drive and applications more than you do anything else. So you try to delete some photos that doesn't take up as much space, podcast, and some videos. And before you know it, the iPad is building up again running out of space, and your browser will act up because you can't update. You can't update until you get a certain amount of storage. You can't play your podcast and listen to websites. It’s crazy! More things happen.

    And here's another thing: cloud storage. They promised us the world with the cloud- an endless expanse of space where we wouldn't have to worry about limited storage. But let's be honest, that can feel a bit like going to the store to buy a bag of potato chips, and the bag is filled with air. I mean do you trust the cloud with all your cherished photos? Files can rearrange on your iPad and disappear. I suspect it's just a big fat lie.

    In the end I just wrestle in headache with my iPad. It constantly reminds me of its limitations, but I love my iPad. I really do. But if it continues to whine about storage, I don't know what I'm gonna do.

    With all the technology made, may it one day be able to manage its own storage space - or at least, may we all learn to live without that nagging message telling us we're just one video away from disaster. Isn’t technology supposed to make our lives easier? Sometimes I think it just wants to keep us on our toes.

    I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to Podcast, News, and Opinion.
