Help Your Android Device Respond Quickly

A very common problem that I have seen many people facing is that when they buy Android phones, their performance and functioning is no doubt, best in the world. This is probably because everything is new in that phone and it is being used for the first time. As time passes on, we observe its functioning slowing down considerably, because we add hundreds of apps and other things that are potent of slowing down any Android device. Google's app store is a home for millions of apps available for free download, install and use for multiple purposes. Adding to the woes is that every mobile brand that use Android as its OS, often has its own app store, alluring users to download apps.

While downloading apps after apps, we don’t realize that this amassing will not only make our smart phones sluggish but also hang frequently and battery getting discharged quickly. However, there are many tips available over the Internet on how to make an Android smart phone perform somewhat better. Let us check out what we can do to enhance the functionality of your Android based smart device

Clear the cache data - The very first thing we can do is to clear the app cache and before I write further, let me first tell about this term "cache". Whatever apps we download and use in our smart devices, they will save some temporary files in your smart phone's storage area. Games are the best example to illustrate here. Suppose we are using gaming apps, they will store an incessant amount of unnecessary information like high scores, records, player names etc. within the cache. While some apps come with big cache storage, some have very small cache store, which runs in the background and eventually makes any Android phone slow down in performance. Thus, it is very important to clean the cached data on a frequent basis as data accumulated in a cache has direct links with the performance of Android based devices.

Deactivate non-running or non-active apps – Another way to ensure that your Android smart phones continue to work as new is to deactivate the non-active applications in them. In addition, what you can do is to close one app before starting to use another, as this will allow entire RAM to work dedicatedly for that app. There are instances, when several apps are working in the background without your knowledge, thus decreasing the speed of Android smart devices.

Disable update checking feature – Numerous pre-installed apps available with Android like Gmail, Facebook, and Twitter etc. require checking for new updates and most of them perform this check in the background. I am sure, you too must have noticed a "refresh" icon being flashed occasionally on your phone's taskbar. You can stop these apps to perform update checking every single second by disabling the update feature of these apps. This helps a lot in enhancing the performance of your Android smart devices to a considerable extent.

CONCLUSION

There are many more tips that can be employed to put a significant amount of impact on the performance of Android based smart phones but tips given above are absolutely simple, non-rigorous and very user-friendly. I am not very sure about whether they would make your Android smart device run as it was running on day one of its purchase but yes, they will increase the speed of your Android on a considerable basis.
