A method for optimizing storage of images at a wearable device includes obtaining information about an amount of storage remaining at the wearable device. Upon determining the amount of storage at the wearable device is less than a first of multiple storage-depletion thresholds, the method provides the user an indication that a first image-management mode is available. In the first image-management mode, the method deletes images that are not of a predetermined image type. Then, upon a determination that the amount of storage at the wearable device is less than or equal to a second of multiple storage-depletion thresholds, the method automatically causes the wearable device to operate in a second image-management mode. While in the second image-management mode, the method blocks a user from storing additional images until the method determines that the amount of storage remaining at the wearable device is above the second storage-depletion threshold.

A method for the delayed processing of image data captured by a wrist-wearable device is provided. The method includes receiving, at a wrist-wearable device, image data having a first resolution. The method includes, responsive to receiving the image data having the first resolution, storing the image data on the wrist-wearable device. The method further includes downscaling at least a portion of the image data to produce downscaled image data having a second resolution and presenting, on the wrist-wearable device, the downscaled image data having the second resolution. The method further includes receiving a request to send a representation of the image data to a device distinct from the wrist-wearable device. Responsive to the request, the method includes causing image-processing algorithms to be applied to the stored image data such that processed image data is generated and made available at the distinct device.
