Managing downloads

Files, applications, and other items you download in Browser, Gmail, or Email are stored on your phone’s USB storage or SD card (depending on your model of phone). You can use the Downloads application to view, reopen, or delete what you’ve downloaded.

Some mobile networks place restrictions on the size of the files you can download, to manage the demands on their networks or to help you avoid unexpected charges. When you try to download an oversized-file when connected to such networks, you’re asked or required to delay downloading the file, until you are next connected to a Wi-Fi network, when the download will resume automatically. You can view and manage these queued files in the Downloads application as well.

Downloaded files are stored in the download directory in your USB storage or SD card. You can view and copy files from this directory when connected to a computer, as described in “Connecting to a computer via USB” on page 67.

Open Downloads and manage downloaded files

STouch the Downloads icon on the Home screen or in the Launcher. See “Opening and switching applications” on page 40.
