I think the first step is to clear your Cache files.... What phone have you got?

Are you apps saved on the phones memory or SD card?

If they are on the phones memory try downloading an app call apps2sd from the playstore and then you can put the apps that are on your phones memory onto the SD card thus saving you memory on your phone.

Side Note though, any widgets you have running, Don't put them to SD as they need to be on the phones memory to work.

The only thing that would be stupid is to not to ask the question in the first place.

You could put in a bigger memory card but as said if your apps are on the phones memory you may want to transfer them to the memory card

Boot the phone into recovery mode (Vol Up+Home+Power) and choose "Clear Cache" (Vol Keys move up / down and power to execute). This will clear some space for you, next you need to remove any apps you don't use so as not to waste the limited space available to you.

A memory card won't help you for apps, but it will give you somewhere to keeps music and photos etc.

The trouble is if all your apps are on the phone memory even if you put a bigger memory card in the phone itself may still have low memory

Any apps that it says are moveable to SD I'd suggest move, if you have any widgets on the homescreen don't move those apps.
