Device Care Options On Your Phone

To keep up with your phone's performance, use the Device care feature. It provides an overview of your phone's battery, storage, RAM, and security. You can also automatically optimize your phone for faster, better performance.

Note: Available screens and settings may vary by wireless service provider, software version, and phone model. This feature was previously called Device maintenance.

 

SOLUTION 1:

Quick Optimization

The Quick Optimization feature improves your phone's performance by identifying apps that use excessive battery power. It also clears away unneeded items from memory, deletes unnecessary files, and closes apps running in the background.

From Settings, swipe to and tap Device care. Tap Optimize now, and then tap Done.

 


SOLUTION 2:

Optimize Battery and Use Power Saving Modes

There are several ways you can change the battery settings to optimize your phone's battery life.

From Settings, swipe to and tap Device care. Tap Battery, and then tap Power mode. Select from the following options:

  • High performance: Maximum screen brightness and resolution. Uses more battery.
  • Optimized: Get the recommended balance of performance and battery life.
  • Medium power saving: Extend battery life by limiting some functions.
  • Maximum power saving: Save as much battery as possible.

You can also turn on Adaptive power saving to automatically set the power mode based on your usage patterns.

 


SOLUTION 3:

Clean Storage

Clear out your phone's storage to get rid of unnecessary residual files.

From Settings, swipe to and tap Device care. Tap Storage, and then tap Clean now to free up storage space. This will delete unnecessary data, such as cached, residual, and advertisement files.

 


SOLUTION 4:

Clean Memory

You can clean up your phone's memory to improve its performance.

From Settings, swipe to and tap Device care. Tap Memory, and then tap Clean now to free up memory by stopping background apps.

You can tap Select apps to exclude and add apps to the list if you'd like to keep certain apps running in the background.
