10 ways to enhance and optimize smart phones performance

Android, despite of all optimization efforts by Google, tends to slow down with usage over time. The new ART runtime proves to be better than the old Dalvik engine in performance, but of course, it can’t stop apps from creating junk files that eat up the precious resources of your Android device.
This causes the performance of the system to take a hit. That’s when you should bring in performance-enhancing apps to run some optimization or maintenance tasks. The former requires freeing up of storage, preventing slowdowns and speeding up operations.


The good news is that there are plenty of Android apps for every kind of maintenance task such as cache-cleaning, optimizing of boot-ups, increasing processor speeds, hibernating apps, restricting background data and setting the device to power saving mode. Here are 10 of the best Android optimizers out there.
