   • Lowering the screen brightness

   Think about how much power the screen needs.

   Which action would free up storage space?

   Grace cannot download a new app because her phone's storage is full. She has several downloaded movies she no longer wants.

   • Restarting the phone without deleting anything

   Stored files take up space even when they are not open.

    What trade-off is Leo making?

    • Longer battery life and faster email updates
    • Longer battery life, but slower email updates

    Consider both the power saved and the less frequent checks.

    • Longer battery life, but slower email updates

    Saving power can mean less activity in the background. If Leo is expecting an important message, he can open his mail app to check.
