How NOT to speed up Android?

How NOT to speed up Android?

I read texts on various portals, which are trying to fill the Tech category, about accelerating Android devices. Mostly the same tips follow, some may write a little "more advanced" tricks. But it all actually slows down, not speeds up.

Having been using Android devices for about 5 years, I tried 1001 ways to speed up my devices. There are some really good ways, but for more experienced users, and it works, the device works faster. But here I am writing about how not to try to speed up Android.

1. Install RAM manager (cleaner, booster ..)

These programs eject the applications that are there from the temporary memory to run faster the next time. Then why throw them out? If you search on more serious forums or ask more professional people, they will answer you the same - these applications are useless.

2. Delete the Cache application

What else is a cache for? To speed up the application. Why delete? Well, the main reason is that over time, the cache fills up and slows down the device. Yes, that applies if you have a phone from 7 years ago. And yes, you can delete the cache once every 5 months, not every day or week. Applications that clear the cache are useless again and will slow down the device again.

3. Forcibly close applications that you do not use

Just to follow a logical path, a more expert does not have to tell you, if you forcibly close the application (kill), the system will need more processing power, time, and energy to run it. Doesn't that take longer than "pulling" it out of the temporary memory? That's why this temporary memory exists, as in the computer, to make the system access applications faster. Then why kick them out?

These are mostly the 3 most common tips I came across, I didn't want to read any more instructions.

Tip: use your phone normally, it exists to serve you, not you.

In one of the next posts, I will write about how to really speed up Android, but you will need a little more knowledge. Until then, you can read the posts from the "Android" category to get to know this OS a little better.

X96 Mini Android TV Box Review

I have already written an article about buying an Android TV Box for up to 30 euros, and now I am writing about one such device - the X96 Mini TV Box . There is not much to say about this device, its price is around 25 euros, it is an Android TV Box like any other, which means that it is powered by an Android system. Since I wrote about it in the previous article, I will not repeat myself. These cheaper TV Box devices differ mainly only in the chip, amount of RAM, and ROM memory. In the previous article, I wrote about what to pay attention to when choosing, and I chose this device that way.
