To store items in the Storage, simply drag and drop the item you want to store into the Storage icon located in the bottom-left corner of your screen. If the item returns to your board when you try to store it, it means you may not have enough available slots in the Storage. You can unlock additional slots using Gems.
To retrieve an item from the Storage and place it back on your board, just open the Storage and tap on the item you want to move. Additionally, if an item stored in the Storage is needed to fulfill an order, it will automatically be used for that order without requiring you to move it back to the board manually.
