Storage Analyser is a very simple app, which works without any kind of special permissions, other than requiring access to the storage.
There’s no ads to pester you, or anything like that. As soon as you run this storage space analyzer app, you’ll see a list of all the folders ordered according to size. Folders are listed from the largest one all the way to the smallest one that you have on your device. Other types of sorting are available, according to name, date modified, etc. Tap on the folder name opens up the contents of the selected folder where again all the folders are listed according to size. You can of course manipulate the files, copy them, move, delete, etc.
