Manual alternatives for precise storage

According to the technical analyses conducted by the 9to5Google editorial team, the new feature has been identified in version 3.1.732-02 of the Find Hub app. The update is currently rolling out across Google Play Store servers to reach compatible devices.

Currently, its rollout follows a gradual pattern, which means that it may still require some more time before the feature is widely available and downloadable for the entire global user base.
