Is your Android getting slower and slower in due course? Need not panic since it’s a common symptom of the Android ageing process, but it is completely reversible.
Let’s dig a little deeper to collar up reasons behind the gradual slowdown of your device over time. There can be countless reasons behind the slowdown of your Android, excess of apps running in the background and virus infections being a few worth mention.
Good for us there’re some proven ways that can enhance the speed of Android and make it run like new again.
Here’s how you can speed up your Android with ease.
1. Remove unused widgets
Unused widgets can be one of the major reasons for the delayed response of your Android. Widgets use a lot of space and hold back your phone’s speed and performance. So wipe unused widgets out in the background to give your smartphone a healthy run.
2. Turn the live wallpaper off
Though live wallpaper gives an attractive look to the display of your phone, it can slow down the performance of your smartphone as the animations need power to keep going. By switching them off you can make your Android slightly smoother and lighter.
3. Move your phone apps to the SD card
Like PCs, smartphones also get slower with the heavy use of memory. To get rid of it, and to make your Android run much faster, move all apps to the SD card. This way you can free the memory of your Android as well as keep all your apps at hand.
4. Use Back key instead of Home key to close the applications
By pressing the home key inside an application, you put that application under standby mode, without closing it. So the application will be continuously consuming memory and causing performance delays. To close apps, simply hold the Home key and choose Task Manager. It will show the list of running apps and options to close/end it.
5. Factory reset
If you have tried all the mentioned steps, but still find your Android running considerably slow than opting for a Factory reset can be the best option to reclaim the speed and performance of your Android. Resetting your Android to factory settings will bring back your device to its optimal state.
