After using the mobile phone for a period of time, it is inevitable that there will be problems of lag and insufficient memory. Many people will choose to do a factory reset directly, but this will delete all the information on the phone, which is a bit of a pity. Today, I will share with you a way to make your phone look new without deleting data, you only need to turn off two switches, and the phone can be as smooth as new!
1. WeChat cleanup
WeChat, as the most used social software in our daily life, occupies a considerable amount of memory. Many people simply delete chat history when cleaning up WeChat, but there are actually two switches that need to be turned off.
1. Auto-save photos, videos, and files: Open WeChat, enter [Settings], click [General], and then turn off the auto-save function of [Photos], [Videos], and [Files] respectively. In this way, the photos, videos, and files taken or received by WeChat will not be automatically saved in the phone.
2. Turn off "People Nearby" and "Games": Go to [Me] - [Settings] - [General] on WeChat, select [Discover Page Management], and turn off the "People Nearby" and "Games" functions. If you don't need to use these features, this step can help you save some memory.
2. Close unnecessary apps
There will always be some apps in your phone that you don't use often, which not only take up memory, but can also be the culprit of lagging. You can long-press the app icon on your desktop and tap "Uninstall" to delete apps you don't use often.
In addition, there is a hidden cleaning trick: go to your phone's [Settings] and find [App Management] or similar options, which will show you all the apps on your phone. From here, you can uninstall unwanted apps or select "Clear Data" to clear your cache.
3. Restore factory settings
If none of the above methods can solve your problem, then the last resort is to do a factory reset. But before that, be sure to back up the important information on your phone, such as contacts, photos, etc.
Go to your phone's Settings, find Backup & Reset or a similar option, and select Factory Reset. Be sure to think twice before doing this step because a factory reset will delete all the information from your phone.
By turning off WeChat's two switches, uninstalling unnecessary apps, and resetting factory settings, your phone will definitely look new and as smooth as new! If you find this method useful, don't forget to share it with your family and friends!
