If you don't like to change your smartphone after 3-4 months of use and want to use your smartphone in the long run, here are few tips to keep your smartphone healthy for the long run.
1. Restart in a week
Well restarting your smartphone reloads all the preferences which help in giving your phone a nap as well as a fresh start again by relaunching all the processes by shutting them down. Also when you feel that your phone is lagging or not working properly, you can restart it and feel the change.
2. Not removing apps from recent tray
The coming smartphones are this much smart that they don't bother about this tip, but current smartphones do. You should not kill apps from your recent apps tray because when you kill them, your phone has to reload all the preferences for that app, which consumes battery and also takes time to launch that app. If you are having trouble in a particular app, you can try this trick to that but not to all. Some people have this as a regular habit which affects your battery life.
3. Charge using original charger
Your first priority to charge your smartphone should be from the original dedicated charger and if not, you should check your charging brick voltage by which it charges your smartphone and then only charge your smartphone with another charger.
4. Update only useful apps
Your smartphone is not fully loaded with the apps you need but also from lots of bloatware(apps which come pre-installed on your smartphone and can not be removed) which you never use. Updated apps use more space than before(not every time) which can lead to storage problems to you. So you should not keep all apps to auto-update.
5. Install only useful apps
Do not install apps doing the same work for you until necessary, it is also a factor of memory consumption. For example browsers, camera apps, photo editors.
6. Don't use unnecessary cleaning apps and free antiviruses
There are bulk of apps available in the play store which claims to boost your phone speed and free up memory, they are nothing but just do the same work as you do by removing apps from the recent tray and also occupies the space.
Free antiviruses just don't have good enough virus definitions to catch the virus, so you should stay away from them and also chances of a virus on a smartphone are very less.
7. Factory reset after 6 months or 1 year
You should perform a factory reset task on your phone after 6 months or 1 year. It helps to restore all the settings to default and also all the installed apps are drained out. It is like refreshing your smartphone. All the preferences are set to default as like when the smartphone came new out of the box.
