phones charged<\/a> between 40% and 80%. When my phone is low on battery. Topping up regularly, instead of doing one big daily charge up to 100%, helps keep the battery healthy.<\/p>\nTip no. 3. Update the device\u2019s operating system<\/h2>\n
Update your Android operating system to the latest version as soon as it\u2019s available. And yes! It\u2019s time to give it a good kick\u2026 The latest versions come with bug fixes for better performance and improved security.<\/p>\n
Tip no. 4. Don\u2019t clog up your phone with unnecessary apps<\/h2>\n
If Google Play Store offers 100,000 free apps, that doesn\u2019t mean you need to fill your phone with 100,000 free apps. Keeping apps you rarely or never use takes up your device\u2019s memory which, in the end, can slow your phone down.<\/p>\n
Tip no. 5. Keep it cool<\/h3>\n
A cool phone is a healthy phone. On a sunny day, don\u2019t leave your phone in the car, and use it in the shade whenever possible. Using it in direct sunlight also requires maximum brightness, which again makes the phone heat up. For long voice calls, it\u2019s better to use earphones. It\u2019s also a good idea to keep your phone in open areas rather than confined spaces such as pockets, bags, etc.<\/p>\n
Tip no. 6. Protect your Android from viruses and other online nasties.<\/h4>\n
Whether it\u2019s corrupting data or stealing it, a virus can ruin everything that\u2019s good about your phone. So, to avoid ending up in a situation where your phone is taken over by an infected or harmful app, get yourself reliable mobile security software.<\/p>\n
