Anyone else have this problem? I have 32GB storage with about 3GB free and 4GB RAM. The part of the LinkedIn app that takes photo of ID to verify account. I can't run that. I can't upgrade phones either. I can't verify via laptop. I can't remove any more apps. I deleted all my videos. Is the RAM or the hard drive the limiter? With what phone specs could you verify your ID with LinkedIn?
 
You can verify on your computer or on your friends phone. There's no other workaround for it as of this point.
 
From what you’re describing, it’s less about storage and more about the app needing enough RAM + a stable camera process to run the ID scan smoothly.
 
Sounds frustrating. It’s likely more of a RAM/performance issue than storage. Try clearing cache or reinstalling the LinkedIn app. ID verification usually needs a stable camera + smoother performance. Even a phone with 4GB RAM + 10GB+ free space should handle it.

It’s most likely not an issue with your phone’s storage or specs, but with the app or system itself.
Try restarting your phone, updating or reinstalling LinkedIn, and clearing the app cache. Verification usually works even on mid-range devices - the problem is almost always not the hardware.
 
This is likely a performance issue mainly due to limited RAM rather than just storage space
4GB RAM can struggle with LinkedIn’s ID verification feature especially on older phones
Low free storage can also affect temporary processing but it’s not the main blocker
Try freeing up RAM by closing apps and clearing cache before retrying
For smoother verification a device with at least 6GB RAM generally works more reliably
