    Yay. Downloaded both apps (and deleted them straight after!) and now have 4 extra GB of space. Got one with first app and then 3gb with carousel :) Thanks OP

    Worked great after just downloading the app - didn't have to sign in with Gmail to the Mailbox app.

    For some reason I only got 1GB bonus when installed Carousel

    UPDATE, I found the reason:
    Note: The Carousel bonus replaces the Camera Upload bonus that was offered with the Dropbox app. If you’ve already received the full bonus space from using Camera Upload, it can’t be credited again. You can check if you’ve received the bonus space in your account settings.

    FFS the Carousel app isnt compatible with the OnePlus One either even though it says all the sh1tty Chinese phones Ive ever tried are good to go! Whats going on there?

    I got that too on my OnePlus, the playstore said both apps were not compatible, however I just installed them both through the Aptoide app instead and got the 4 extra Gigs, thanks OP and whoever mentioned Carousel. Deleting them now of course! I also have that 48 Gigs bonus from installing Dropbox on the other half's Samsung but that will expire in 12 months, so not counting on that for anything.

    Someone on the OPO owners thread told me if you've adjusted the DPI to fit more icons on screen then it can cause this issue with random apps. I sideloaded the apks, got the bonuses and uninstalled again no problems.

    I saw that thanks, I have indeed adjusted the DPI to fit more icons so that's probably it. Personally I'd be wary of sideloading apps from torrents etc. when they're easier accessible and verified through Aptoide. I have three app stores on my phone, the other being Amazon just for all the free apps they keep giving away.

    Aptoide looks like the way to go in future thanks.

    I think there's plenty of sites where if you enter the Google Play url of an app they'll grab the APK from it for you. As Blade said you don't know what's been done to them when you get them off a torrent site.

    Joined this yesterday and today I received a text message from a foreign number with a link to a photo. Deleted the text as it looked dodgy..... Coincidence or did it happen to anyone else too?

    Yep I got one too, apparently I have won 1000 dunnes vouchers. Odd thing I didn't enter my phone number unless the app did.

    Can you delete these apps and retain the free space on your account ?

    not quite free, but, if you haven't already maxed out your referrals you can find people on eBay who will do it for you for anywhere between $3 & $10. I have done it with my own account, several family members and recommended it to a few friends who all seemed to get on fine. Don't ask me how they do it but within 24 hours my referrals were maxed out. that was over a year ago and all the extra space is still there.

    Nope it was showing up straight away!
    Also a few little more ways of increasing space a tiny bit.
