They were clearly flagged because they are large in size. For example, on my first scan it found all the personal videos I recorded with the camera, along with some local music files. If you’re not paying attention and you just delete everything it finds, you may end up losing valuable data. The Residual File Cleaner does a thorough scan, but I would argue it’s almost too thorough. Everything is as it should be, and yet there are still a couple quirks. The App Manager allows you the option to uninstall apps, and backup related data. The Privacy cleaner scans for sensitive material and prompts you to remove what it uncovers. The app cleaner wipes the cache, and it certainly does it efficiently. I know I usually obsess about the UI with most apps, but you’d be surprised how many developers out there overlook something so basic. It’s a great app, and the user interface is snappy and responsive. I’m not going detail each tool individually because as I’ve said several times already, you probably understand what they do because they can all be found elsewhere. If you’re well versed in technology though, you probably don’t need something like this to clean up storage and help your device perform better. Don’t take that to suggest it’s not worth downloading. Without trying to sound too negative, Clean Master is pretty much like any other app cleaner or memory optimizer out there.
It’s definitely safer to manually cleanup the Android OS yourself, but that requires you to know what you’re doing.Ĭlean Master offers a selection of maintenance tools and file cleaners that are designed to improve your device’s performance.
It’s always important to be careful with software that promises to clean up your device. On the other hand, cleaning up the wrong files, and killing off apps all willy nilly can do more harm than good. On one hand, cleaning up cache files and leftover junk from previous app installs can be beneficial. The usefulness of an app like Clean Master is highly debatable.
Problem is, cleaning out everything can be somewhat of a pain.
More advanced users know how to take care of these files of their own accord. Temporary, surplus and leftover files can bog down any device, and that includes mobile phones.
