My routine is this:
-I backup to google photos at the low resolution- so even if they are "lost" at least I have copies.
- Around the end of the month or beginning of the next month, I open Lightroom classic app on my desktop. It syncs to my lightroom app on my phone and automatically copies all my photos and videos to my external hard drive. After I've done that, I completely delete everything from my phone from a few months back. That way I only really have a month or two of photos/videos physically stored on my phone. When I want access to an older pic on my phone- I just use drop box to transfer them back or just pull from my google photos app.
That's a perfect plan!! Thanks for sharing it!!
