128GB of storage is barely forgivable these days on a high-end flagship, but Google keeps releasing Pixel phones with that base level. The Pixel 9 series (https://www.androidauthority.com/google-pixel-9-3365966/), for example, can do 8K video upscaling, save a Gemini Nano (https://www.androidauthority.com/gemini-nano-features-devices-3490062/) model locally for faster AI computations, and costs at least $799 while still offering you a base 128GB storage tier. That feels unfair to me.
But Android 15 has a trick up its sleeve that can help mitigate the dreaded “storage full” notification that keeps popping up on my Pixel phones. It’s called “app archiving,” and it works as a temporary band-aid to clear some storage while I figure out exactly what I need to erase from my phone.
