Abstract

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.
