We spend hours on our phones every day, so it wouldn’t hurt to keep them neat and organized. If you want your phone to run smoothly, here are five decluttering tips that can help you improve its performance.

Switch Off Notifications

Unnecessary notifications can be pretty disruptive and can mess up your concentration and focus, so consider turning them off as soon as you download new apps.

Organize Your Apps

Speaking of apps, you can also declutter your phone by deleting the ones you’re not using. Once that’s done, consider hiding less frequently used apps from your screen and organizing the rest of them by task so they wouldn’t take up too much space on your home screen.

Contacts Purge

Your contacts are probably overcrowded with countless numbers you don’t even need so do yourself a favor and delete them ASAP.

Cleaning Up Gallery

Photos in our gallery often take up most of our storage, so put an effort into deleting bad and repetitive ones to free up some space on your phone.

More Storage

Deleting unnecessary photos will free up a lot of storage on your phone, but it’s also a good idea to delete old files and music downloads, especially since you can use apps such as Spotify instead.
