tricks to make your Android run faster

It’s frustrating to drop several hundred dollars on a high-end smartphone only to find that the smooth and speedy performance you expected remains elusive. Mid-rangers and the budget end of the market are even more prone to stuttering and lag. There are various ways to speed up that Android performance, and a few things you can do to make it feel faster.[br][br]Make sure you’re up to date[br][br][a href="https://cdn57.androidauthority.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/android-update.jpg"][/a][br][br]The latest software will often contain bug fixes and general improvements and it can help your Android device to run better. Software updates tend to come OTA (Over The Air) and you should be automatically prompted to install them, but it doesn’t hurt to check. Go to Settings ] About device ] Software update and check for updates.[br][br]The same logic applies to apps, so fire up the Play Store, open the menu at the top left and tap My apps and make sure all of the apps you use are up to date.[br][br]Clean up your home screen[br][br][br][br]If you choose to use live wallpaper then consider replacing it with a good static image. You should also clean away any unused icons and limit your widgets to the essentials. The less cluttered your home screen is, the better in terms of performance.[br][br]Uninstall and disable unused apps[br][br][a href="https://cdn57.androidauthority.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/galaxy-s4-how-to-uninstall-apps-aa-0015.jpg"][/a][br][br]You don’t want to allow apps that you never use to take up space on your device and potentially eat into system resources. Go to Settings ] Apps and swipe over to the All tab. Take a good long look down the list and identify the apps you don’t want or need. If you’re in doubt about what any of them do then it’s time to hit Google and check.[br][br]Tap on any app you don’t want and then choose Uninstall or, if the option is not there to uninstall, tap Disable. Disabled apps will be listed in a new tab, so you can always enable them again in future if you change your mind.[br][br]You should also take a look in Settings ] Apps at the Running tab. Some apps want to be running all the time and they can seriously impact on performance. Think carefully about whether you need what’s listed there.[br][br]Turn off or reduce animations[br][br]You can make your Android device feel snappier by reducing or turning off some of animations. You’ll need to enable Developer options in order to do this. Go to Settings ] About phone and scroll down to the System section to look for Build number. Tap on it seven times and you should see a message about being a developer. You can now go back to the previous menu and you should see Developer options listed under System. Head in there and scroll down to find Window animation scale, Transition animation scale, and Animator duration scale. Tap each in turn and set it to .5x or off. Pick an option and find out what suits you, if you don’t like just go back in and change the values again.[br][br]Clear cached app data[br][br]Cached data for apps should help them to load more quickly, but it can build up over time to take up quite a lot of space and there will potentially be cached data in there for apps that you no longer use. Sometimes clearing cached data for an app can also help clear up flaky behavior.[br][br]If you want to pick individual apps then head into Settings ] Apps and slide over the All tab and tap on the relevant app then choose Clear cache. If you’ve decided to just clear the whole lot then go to Settings ] Storage and tap on Cached dataand then tap OK. Also, check out [a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.piriform.ccleaner"]CCleaner[/a], it cleans out your app cache and helps perform this kind of maintenance.[br][br]
