Clearing the cache of applications especially WhatsApp is a good start to create free space on your mobile phone.
This is good especially if you receive huge amounts of files and media through the app.
Once you download files and media from WhatsApp, it stores it in the cache.
A cache is a reserved space in the internal storage that stores data like thumbnails, statuses you see among other temporary files that you may want to look up later.
A backlog of these can result in your phone slowing down.
Here is what you can do to remedy the situation.
Step 1
Click on the WhatsApp icon.
Step 2
Tap on Application information.
Step 3
Click on Storage and cache.
Step 4
Tap on clear cache.
However, it is important to note that there might be other factors that are slowing down your phone.
These include downloaded applications, photos and music or movies saved on internal memory.
You might have to delete some or all of these to clear space on your phone.
You can also free your RAM and speed up your phone by disabling apps and removing bloatware, using third party booster apps, avoid using live wall papers and extensive widgets and disable all animations.
