There’s a lot of acronyms and technical phrases, and while we know they all work in tandem to ensure our phones, it can be a little difficult to figure out what each of them is responsible for. RAM stands for random-access memory, and it is concerned mostly with what your phone is “currently thinking,” so to speak. To ensure that your RAM isn’t overworked, use the memory booster feature to close background apps and speed up your device:


Your phone has a bunch of apps saved on it, basic programs that are either running or not running. Your phone always knows how to open Instagram, for example, though it wouldn’t have anything new to display; the app could open without any connection to Wi-Fi or service. This is something your phone knows how to do on its own. But it’s not like the app is always running.

Occasionally it lays dormant, waiting to be activated. These are things your phone remembers how to do, but it’s not the sort of memory RAM is concerned with. That’s “hard drive” data — things like documents, apps, photos, etc. — that are stored there, and they’ll be there every time you turn your phone off and back on.

RAM is concerned with active memory. The second you open Instagram is the second RAM kicks it, and it’s the reason you don’t have to reopen Instagram if you close the window briefly to make a phone call. When you open Instagram again, it doesn’t have to reload the whole app because RAM remembered it was running Instagram and continued to run the program even while you made your call.

RAM is short-term memory, and it stops remembering the second you definitively close the app (instead of just minimizing the window) as well as every time you turn your phone off and back on. Your RAM dictates how fast your phone runs, and it’s the reason your phone slows down the more apps you have open: it’s got a lot on its mind, all of a sudden, and has to split its attention.

What does that mean for you? Essentially, if you’re the type of person who has a lot of apps open at once, you’re going to want to make sure your RAM is powerful enough to match. Apps such as games, which have a lot of things happening at once while they’re open, eat up a lot of RAM. So, be careful about eating it up.

<![CDATA[Which Communication App is the Most Battery Efficient?]]> https://www.psafe.com/en/blog/communication-app-battery-efficient/ Sun, 25 Jun 2017 16:00:03 +0000 https://www.psafe.com/en/blog/?p=12071 While it’s true that social media apps like Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp can drain a lot of battery, their users are mostly the ones at fault. Now, don’t get all upset! It’s great to text with your friends, send selfies, and share silly GIFs, but these activities do take up a lot of your battery life. The problem with messaging apps is that they run in the background of your phone. Even if you close them when you’re finished using them, these apps never ever stop working. But don’t worry; you can use Memory Booster to close background apps on your device:

Between texting and using Messenger or WhatsApp, neither option is necessarily more battery-efficient. You shouldn’t have to stop using these apps, though. You simply need to be more aware of what’s happening with your Android while you’re using these apps. That’s where Memory Booster comes in. Memory Booster will close all apps running in the background of your phone in order to free up RAM, speed up your device, and improve your battery life. Want to further improve your battery life? Keep reading below to find out what steps to take to help conserve your battery life during an engaging texting conversation.

How to Save Your Android’s Battery While Messaging

  • Change to Power Saving Mode, or manually dim your screen. Contrary to popular belief, Power Saving Mode isn’t only for when your phone is close to dead. You can enable this handy feature whenever you know you’ll be using your Android for a lengthy stretch of time. Power Saving Mode streamlines your phone’s usability, so the screen is slightly dimmed and any features you don’t need are disabled.
  • Close unused applications while you text. If you’re leaving apps running in the background while you message friends, that’s a surefire way to drain your battery. These applications continue to eat up energy, even when you’re not actively using them. So, you should close them ASAP with Memory Booster. Things like games, video, social media, and live streaming apps are usually the biggest culprits.

Turn off notifications and disable constant refreshing. As mentioned above, notifications and app-refreshing are a huge battery-sucking problem. For applications like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, you probably don’t need to see every single notification. So, why not turn them off? While you’re in “Settings,” you should consider changing your refreshing and notification options. Since these apps are always updating themselves (hundreds of times a day), they’re going through your Android’s battery levels like small hurricanes.

This feature will show you all of the apps running in the background on your phone, and allow you to quickly and easily close them.

How to Use Memory Booster

Simply click the button above. Or, you can open the dfndr app, click “Tools” and then click “Memory Booster” under the performance features. You’ll then be able to perform a memory boost. This function will scan your phone for apps that take up too much memory, and you’ll be able to easily control them through this feature. You can choose to disable the apps that take up too much power so that your phone operates more efficiently. You can use this feature as frequently as you need to — any time your phone needs a quick “pick me up.”

Why Memory Booster is Important

There are a lot of benefits to disabling apps that take up too much memory on your device. First of all, there’s no way that you can use all of these apps at once, nor is there a reason to. Disabling certain apps will help to enhance the apps that you are currently using on your phone. That way, those apps will operate faster and more smoothly.

Further, if your device is running too many apps at once — particularly apps that you’re not using — this could cause your device to overheat. This can happen because your phone has too many tasks to complete at once. Overheating can damage your device and your device’s battery, which means that it won’t last as long as it should. That’s why it’s important to take advantage of the Memory Booster tool, so that your phone not only works as it was meant to, but also lasts as long as it’s supposed to, too.
