• This app is only compatible with iOS devices in the United States.

So if you are trying to use the smart switch on your iPhone (not in the USA), then you will have a hard time doing it as it's's just not possible.

• The versions supported by Samsung Smart Switch are above the Android 4.0 operating system.

It clearly indicates that the phones with versions under 4.0, for example, Galaxy S2 cannot make use of a smart switch.

• Samsung Smart Switch only supports to import data to Samsung devices from other devices.

For those users who want to transfer data from Samsung to other mobile devices, It may not work for you.

Also, to avoid any kind of security risk and data loss, please make sure that you never use this Program Compatibility Troubleshooter apps related to antivirus programs, firewall software, disk utilities, or on system programs that come preinstalled with Windows.

Part 4: Samsung Smart Switch Not Connecting

This is quite a common error that makes the connection weak and does not let Smart Switch transfer and restore the data easily. The cause of this could be either defected USB cable, non-compatibility issue, or there could be some hardware problem as well.

To start with, if you have connected your USB wire to the PC properly and performed all the necessary steps effectively, which are required to connect to the Samsung Smart Switch, then we suggest you check your computer as the problem might lie in the PC itself. In this case, try to download Smart Switch on a different PC and create a connection to check if this makes any difference. Even if this flop, then you might just clear the cache partition on your phone before making any other connection.

Also, in order to connect, you need to activate the USB debugging on your device. This feature can be found on the developer's list. Reaching here, you can make numerous changes to improve the performance of your phone. To activate simply go to Menu Settings Device Information. You can see "Build Number". Now, quickly click several times on this number in order to enable the developer mode. If you now link your Samsung Galaxy with your PC and Smart Switch, then the software should make auto-sense your smartphone accurately, and a backup of the files can be formed or restored.

Part 5: Samsung Smart Switch Not Enough Space Error

As we all know, space is never enough when we use Smart Phones like Samsung Galaxy as there are a vast number of appealing apps that we end up installing and blocking the storage. Mostly, less storage is the reason for getting the error "Insufficient Storage Available".  As per our research, there are numerous causes of the lack of sufficient storage. You must be unaware of the fact that Android apps make use of three groups of storage space. First, for the apps themselves, Second, for the apps' data files, and lastly, for apps' cache. Those caches can actually grow quite large, and we will not be able to notice this easily

To solve this problem, Open the Settings app, click Storage. And here, you can witness the available storage on your phone. Now click on Cached Data, and you will see a pop-up you have to choose to delete to empty the cache.

Note: Please be informed that this will not get the deal in all cases. Android phones that utilize external storage like SD cards etcetera, mostly have much less usable storage than is reported. This is mainly due to various systems resources, and some apps must be installed on the device's built-in core storage, not on a removable storage medium.
