Always keep a few things in mind after a mobile update

Whether it's an iPhone or Android, after a new software update, the phone suddenly starts hanging, apps open slowly, the battery drains quickly, and there's a lag when scrolling. Millions of users complain about this after every major update. In 90% of cases, the phone can be made as fast as before in 10-15 minutes without resetting it. Let's explore some effective solutions...

Method

Restart the Phone

First, wait 10 minutes and restart the phone. File indexing and optimization continue in the background immediately after the update. Fully charge the phone, turn it off, and turn it on after 2 minutes. In most cases, this will fix half the problem.

Clear the Cache

These are temporary files that help apps and websites load faster. Repeatedly loading websites can cause slowdowns. To do this, clear the cache data by going to your phone's settings and storage. Or go to each app and clear its cache individually.

Remove Unused Apps and Widgets

It's possible that some older apps may not work properly with the new system after the update. In this case, remove all widgets from the home screen. You can uninstall apps that you haven't opened in 3 months. Also, check if any apps have pending updates!

Reduce the Animation Scale

If you have an animation set on your home screen, you can replace it with a still wallpaper. You can also change the window animation scale by going to the Developer options on your Android phone. Here, you'll find the option to set the Transition Animation Scale and Animator Duration Scale.

Turn Off the Battery Saver

Many people, in an attempt to save battery after an update, turn on the battery saver permanently. This automatically reduces performance. Turn it off. You can also turn off Background App Refresh. If the phone still feels slow, put it in Airplane Mode for a while. After that, if you remove airplane mode from the phone, there is a possibility that the phone will become faster.
