How much usable memory does Bangle.js 2 have? Can all existing applications be installed?

Hello, I have read the following data:

256kB RAM, 1MB on-chip flash, 8MB external flash

Is the 8MB fully available to install applications?

Would it be possible to install absolutely all existing applications? Without deleting any.

How much does the set of all existing applications occupy?

Yes.

I don't know for sure how much space all the apps would occupy, but my gut feeling is that yes, you could install all of them on the 8MB flash.

However the Bangle would likely run a lot slower with all apps installed, because having more files will mean files take a bit longer to find in Storage.
