How do you choose the right storage capacity for your iPad?

You can't expand the storage of your iPad with a memory card, so it's important to choose the right amount when you buy it. Keep in mind that the operating system of the iPad also uses some of the storage capacity. If you choose 128GB of storage, you'll never have 128GB of free storage space. Have you calculated in advance how much storage you need on your device? Add about 20 percent to that number. That way, you're sure to have enough space. Using cloud services for storage is also an option, of course. These do cost money though.
