One downside to the iPad is the lack of an easy way to expand its internal storage capacity. While the newest iPads come with at least 128GB of storage, and you can opt for models with as much as 2TB if you purchase an iPad Pro, you may find yourself needing more storage to handle resource-intensive apps and large video and photo collections.

Whether you have an older iPad with little storage space or you're looking for ways to increase your iPad's storage capacity, here are some tips for creating more storage space on your iPad.

Cloud storage is a great way to store documents, photos, and videos. This won’t expand the available storage for your apps, but it will help offload every other kind of file, leaving more room for apps.

Cloud storage uses the internet as a second hard drive. It uses the storage space of a remote location for your storage needs. The iPad comes with iCloud Drive for this purpose, but Dropbox and Google Drive are other good options. Most cloud storage solutions also offer some free space to get you started.
