Both LG Stylo 4 & 5 have 32GB internal storage space. Half the storage space is used by System memory. We are only left with around 16GB of usable storage space.
The good thing is we can increase the memory via a micro SD card. However, only the media and other files can be stored in the external memory. The app & game installation will still occupy the internal storage space.
The solution to this problem is the Adoptable storage feature. It allows us to move apps to the SD card and makes it the default storage space for apps & games.
