As a fellow over-50 non-computer-geek person, I'll tell you that I do have File Explorer installed on my phone but I still find it simpler to just hook up the phone to the computer if I want to move or copy things - I guess this is a matter of personal preference, as some people on this thread have advocated for each way of doing things.
I still don't understand why when you uninstalled apps it didn't change your internal storage numbers. I have always been able to see a difference if I added or removed an app.
My phone has 16GB total internal storage with 5.04 GB of that devoted to Android OS files, leaving 10.96 GB of internal storage for my use. I currently have 6.42 GB used of 10.96 GB. This number (6.42 out of 10.96) is the one that changes if I install or uninstalled something.
My SD card is set up as external storage and I have the camera set to store photos on the external card. This setting can be found by opening the camera app and going to its settings (I suppose this affects only future photos and not ones already in storage?)
I don't have a lot of music (I usually listen to the radio or CD's) but I think I have those files set to store on external.
I mainly do my reading on my Sony reader and I read mostly library books anyway, so book storage on the phone isn't a big issue for me. I did set the Overdrive library app to save downloaded files to the card (this setting is found by opening the Overdrive app and accessing its settings).
