Suffering from a slow Android device? How to fix it! – Total Computer

Assess the situation

Just like PCs, Android devices behave unpredictably when they lack of storage or memory at their disposal. Symptoms of this are apps that crash randomly or may not want to load, and it is remarkably slow the unit. To see if you have enough storage space or memory, open the storage and systems that is built into Android. (Note: The menus which I refer may be on your device look different depending on the Android version you’re running.) Also: Find your smartphone back with Android Device Manager

.

First, open the notification bar or go to your apps, and press the gear icon to Settings to go. Scroll down until you see an entry called Storage . Click the icon and you’ll see a list with information on the amount of storage space that is currently occupied by among others in applications, photos, audio files and downloads. It is also mentioned how much storage space does the unit in total and how much space is still available

.

the Storage menu, you can keep track of how much space is available on your device, but you can not do much more than formatting a storage volume – what you should not do unless you want to completely erase the device. To make without to remove all changes, you have the built-in app manager of Android, use the Application Manager.

The app manager lets you see exactly how big an app and what is the effect on your smartphone or tablet.

To access the app manager, go to Settings , scroll down to Application Manager , and press it (on some devices it may be that you Applications , then Management or Manage applications to press). In Application Manager, you can – by swiping your finger across the screen – placing three columns of apps in pictures: Downloads, Active and All

The list of downloaded apps displays all the apps you from. Google Play Store have downloaded, and a lot of standalone apps that your provider or the manufacturer of the device has pre-installed. The lists active apps and all speak for themselves. Below the columns Downloaded and all you can see how much space an app occupies, and underneath the Active column you can see how much memory to use the apps together.

Free memory

If you in the Gedownload- or All-column press any app, you’ll see a list of various options, including the ability to terminate an app forced (to clear memory), uninstall or cache and app- To delete data. To delete an app, simply hit the Clear button.

If you have an app that does not function properly try to fix, the Clear Cache can and Clear Data come in handy. With Clear Cache remove all data or files related to the app from the cache, and are forced new versions stored in the cache. With Data erase delete all personal data linked to an app, including your login details and scores of games. The app would then have to function like new.

If an app does not work properly, first press Clear Cache . Does that not, press Clear Data . If the problem is still not resolved, try the app to uninstall (by pressing Clear button), the device to reboot and install the app.
