Okay seeing a post of mine in your saved folder was EVERYTHING. I spent this time moving apps off my home screen and it gave me so much joy. Thanks Jess!!
I’m really good at digital cluttering as I go, after I had a big declutter a few years ago. My ebooks still get out of control though because I always grab a bunch of free ones. Around this time each year I sit and read the first paragraph of everything and remove the ones that are not holding my interest then organize the rest in my Kindle app. I’m probably missing a few books that get good a bit later, but this year I got rid of 160 ebooks and the rest truly have my interest and are easier to see and hopefully get around to
A digital declutter has been on my list of things to do for a while. I have over 7000 photos on my phone.😮 I have tons in my email Trash folder and my Inbox. And files 😮😮😮. There are Apple file types, Microsoft file types, and Google file types. Some files are in all three formats. When I want a file where do I look? Password management. And what’s still on my laptop vs my iPad/iPhone. Do I even still need my laptop. My browser bookmarks 😅😅😅. Thanks for the ‘thought starters’.
One task in my monthly reset is to review photos from the previous month and delete as needed. I always find random screenshots or multiples of the same (dog) photo that can be deleted.
I try to do this all the time but I always get overwhelmed and eventually don't know what I need to do and the way you broke things down is really gonna help. hopefully i'll be able to get as much done before the new year begins. ☺
a digital declutter is something that I really need, but I'm saving it for January when things are less busy for me so that I can do a more thorough job
Woo! Had to take notes for this one ♥️ One thing I would add for Social Media (or I'm sorry I may have missed it) is to check your security settings. Make sure things are still hidden that you want hidden.
Love your organization Jess !! 🤩💜
I pretty much do a digital declutter on my phone every time I sit for any length of time in a bus, tram or doctor's office. I have few if any apps on my phone except for things I need functionally. The only ones I keep that I don't use - are the ones that I can't delete because they come with the operating system. Those are the ones that I put in folders and ignore them. For email and so on - I was an IT professional before I retired. Zero inbox email is my way of life. I can't bear having old emails in my inbox - it causes me mental pain.
For the photos and videos, I like to search for the current month without the year attached. It pulls up all the Month items ever. Delete any as desired while reviewing them for the list. Then, sort into a year or Month folder (tags work well too).
Phew - got through the whole list ----- thank you!
gorgeous work, i love your videos ❤❤❤
My digital clutter is just …beyond the point of saving so I’ve given up on considering fixing anything previous and decided to focus on new stuff going forward lmao 🤣
I wish i could hire people to organize my hard drives 30T of them 😅😢😭
Just a tip for anyone else who also regularly has a bloated Watch Later list- if you hit the three dots when you’re in the watch later list you can clear all of the watched ones at once. Took me longer than I care to admit to figure that out 😅
One really good declutter and I didn't hear you say it but I might have missed it is going into the computers temporary files and clearing those out since it's a separate file storage from downloads
5:26 That works well.
Great video! I absolutely need to do this (going on the potential list of things to do during 'void week' this year, LOL) <3
I am terrible at assuming my digital stuff will just, fix themselves 😅😂 Off topic, but your hair looks fantastic!
