Storage Analyzer Large Files

Understand what is taking space inside a folder before you decide what to keep, move, or review.

Storage Analyzer Large Files uses Android’s system folder picker. You choose the exact folder the app may inspect; the analyzer then reads visible file metadata locally and sorts files by size.

CHOOSE A FOLDER

• Grant access through Android’s Storage Access Framework

• Avoid the broad Manage all files permission

• Analyze only the folder you select

SEE STORAGE BY TYPE

• Images

• Video

• Audio

• Documents

• Archives

• Other file types

FIND LARGE FILES

• Sort visible files from largest to smallest

• See the filename, reported size, and MIME type

• Open a selected item with a compatible Android app

• Review results before changing anything

LOCAL AND USER-CONTROLLED

Folder names, filenames, sizes, and scan results are processed on your device. The core analyzer does not upload a file list, require an account, delete items automatically, or scan outside the folder permission you provide. The app includes advertising; advertising-related device identifiers are disclosed separately in Google Play Data safety.

HONEST LIMITS

Results depend on what Android and the selected document provider expose. Protected files, app-private storage, cloud placeholders, or unknown file sizes may not appear. A scan stops after 5,000 visible files to keep the session responsive. Reported totals are an analysis of the selected folder, not a promise to represent every byte used by the device.

Use Storage Analyzer Large Files when a downloads folder, camera export, shared drive, or project directory has become difficult to understand.
