How to Add a Storage Widget to Your Home Screen on iPhone
CleanMaster offers storage-gauge and memory-usage widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen, so you can see how full your iPhone is at a glance and tap through straight into the tool that clears it.
Steps
- Long-press your Home Screen (or Lock Screen) and choose to add a widget.
- Find CleanMaster and pick the storage gauge or memory widget.
- Place it where you’ll glance at it.
- Tap the widget anytime to jump straight into the matching tool.
Why it works this way
You only think about storage when you’re already out of it — mid-photo, mid-update. A widget flips that: the gauge sits on your Home or Lock Screen so a full phone is obvious before it blocks you, and tapping it drops you straight into the cleanup tool instead of hunting through the app.
Tips & edge cases
- Lock Screen widget gives a glance without even unlocking.
- Tap-through saves steps — go from “storage is full” to clearing it in one tap.
- Pair with the System Info dashboard for memory as well as storage.
