Clear Cache On Android For Better Performance

Have you noticed that your Android device is starting to feel sluggish? You're not alone.

This can happen when too much storage space is taken up, and it happens with Android like any other device. There's an easy way to fix this problem by clearing the cache from your Android apps and web browsers.

Clearing cache from your Android apps will not only help speed up the apps you already have, it will also free up space for you to download more apps. Please note settings may vary depending on your Android phone's manufacturer.

How to clear app cache from your Android:

Open the Settings app on your Android
Select Apps
Tap the hamburger menu next to Your apps
Under sort by, select Size and press OK. This will organize your apps by size, with the app that takes up the most storage space appearing at the top
Under your apps, select the apps which you want to clear cache from
When you select an app, you'll be taken to the App Info page. Select Storage
Select Clear Cache in the bottom right-hand corner.
