I have a 16 GB iphone 3g, and have 19 apps. I have over 14 GB left, but I was wondering if i can fill all of it up with apps? I have read people have like 100 apps and it works weird because they have too many. But I do not have any music or videos. And only 3.2 MB worth of pictures. So how many more apps can I get?
It depends… It is based on memory… so like every pic you take or song or movie you add on your phone the more memory it takes… I have an 8gb and like I have 6 pages of apps but I only have like 15 pics and like 20 songs…
For what it’s worth, you can have a maximum of 144 applications installed on the phone at a time, regardless of their size.
In reality, though, It depends on the size of the apps you install. Some apps are really simple and small (like some of the flashlight apps or tip calculators). Those will probably always stay the same size, maybe get a little bigger with updates.
Other apps that download data a lot will increase in size over time. For example, apps that connect to Twitter often download and cache your Twitter messages, people’s avatars and images. Those will take up space. Also, apps like Ambiance that download sounds to be played, or games that download level packs will definitely take up extra room.
So you can easily fill up the phone with a couple dozen HUGE apps, or fill it up with a hundred small ones. It all depends on the size.
