How to make your Android phone run faster

We all hate those unpleasant moments when our smartphones start moving slower with each day. After all, their performance keeps improving, but in the same time, apps require more and more resources, so what should you do in order to avoid those slow moment? Follow these tips and your phone should definitely go faster, no matter it’s a top notch device or an older model.

1. Install just compatible apps, from trustful sources

Limit yourself to getting apps only from the Play Store. When you’re installing not compatible apps, coming from other sources, some of the features might not work, making it very hard to uninstall. And when you’re uninstalling this type of app, it will definitely leave some ‘bad traces’ on your phone.

2. Get rid of the apps you’re not using

From time to time, it’s recommended to go through all the apps and see which ones you’re barely using or not using at all. If you have a few of them which go in this category, go on and delete them. Let’s be serious, you’re not using more than 10-15 apps in a week…

3. Use a task killer app

You definitely have a lot of apps running in the background, consuming all your resources. S/and believe us, a task killer app definitely improves your phone’s performance. One option is Advanced Task Killer, giving you the possibility to “Auto Kill” apps when you’re closing them. Other app that we like is Clean Master, as it helps you clean your phone and, when it’s the case, it can tell you that 90% of your phone’s memory is being used and you should do something.

4. Pay attention to widgets

Yes, they can make your phone go slower. Pay attention to the widgets that get updated often, as they can be big resource eaters. We’d recommend getting rid of the ones you don’t really need, but it’s up to you after all.

5. Wallpaper

Everybody knows that live wallpapers drain the battery, but they also make your phone go slower every time they move from side to side. Try sticking to a simple background and your phone will be forever thankful.

And this ends our guide. Of course, there are way more methods of making sure your phone runs smoothly for a long period of time, but you can stick just to these and you will see an improvement in your phone’s performance.
