Does anyone know how to maximize Series 3 storage? Photos app takes up the most room even though no photos are loaded on my watch. Anyone know a way to delete the Photos app? Same question for other apps like Mail? Series 3 has very little memory. For media I really just want podcasts, music, audible books. But I also want to keep the iMessages, Walkie-Talkie, Wallet and Timer apps. Everything else can go.

Hmm. I never had storage issues on my Series 3. For photos, I created a small album on my Mac & chose that as the synced one (Recent Photos). I'm on a series 5 now & my photos only take up 64MB. Mail on my watch takes up 293 MB (iCloud account with default sync & no options changed). Music takes up 6.3 GB, Podcasts 630 MB. I always have issues with the audible app, but I can sync one book at a time, so that is very small right now 10 MB.

Series 3 is worthless if you want any media downloaded on it. I think I have a single song loaded and no pictures. Two watch faces. It only has 1GB remaining.
