Say what a memory card adds
Whether a memory card would help your device, and what it will not do.
A memory card is a piece of storage the size of a stamp, sliding into a slot on many Android phones, tablets and cameras.
It adds room for pictures and files. It adds no speed, and iPhones have no slot.
Key points
- A memory card adds room to devices with a slot for one
- It holds files, adds no speed, and is not a backup
What to remember
- A card holds files. Apps mostly stay put.
- A card adds shelves, not speed.
Try this
Look along the edge of your phone for a small tray with a pinhole. A card goes there.
