To enhance the performance of your device, one of the primary tasks is to remove the apps which are not needed and they take up the memory functioning of the phone. An application can take the background even if not in use and will be a cause of the phone's loss of resources. These should be disabled or uninstalled unless necessary. Periodically eliminate your cache, because the collection of stored data from apps and websites can over time lead to your device running slow. Furthermore, try not to make use of live wallpapers and too many widgets, as they both continuously use the system's resources. The phone's software could be refreshed also from time to time, and you can stop background processes that might still be active. The majority of the animations can be reduced in the settings as well, as they are no longer needed. In the case of older devices, the visual effects from such features can cause a decrease in the overall performance of the device. Keeping your operating system up to date can result in speed and efficiency improvements due to software updates often include optimizations. Instead of heavy launchers that utilize RAM, switch to lightweight alternatives or use the traditional one of your phone. If your phone has a gallery full of files or a storage-heavy downloads folder, the recommended solution is to save and ultimately remove saved files, videos, or photos that are likely to occupy internal space. Likewise, make sure of lowering the automatic syncing of apps such as email or cloud services which will cause less background activity. The unused location services and the non-essential apps’ background data are referable to being disabled when you are not using them. When none of your solutions worked and your phone is still slow, you can perform a factory reset to erase everything. Just make sure to backup your data before initiating the process.
