Android has advanced settings that avoid sluggishness and gagging; know how to use

Android phones feature a programmer mode that offers several features to modify and improve system performance. These include finalizing application activities and limiting processes running in the background. Both reduce the consumption of RAM, one of the most common causes for crashes and sluggishness of the cell phone.

The behavior of the apps remains practically unchanged. They will continue to send notifications as usual, but depending on the configuration, they will be finalized as if they had been closed one by one in the multitasking tab. In the following steps, learn how to access and enable these two tools to have a faster Android.

Step 3. An alternative to improving Android performance, but keeping some activities stored in RAM, is to limit the amount of processes in the background.
