The mobile phone has become one of our essentials of our day to day. Through the applications preinstalled on the phone and the ones we are downloading with its use we perform many actions. From the most classic ones such as making calls and exchanging messages to others that have also become everyday such as searching for a location using GPS, using the camera, searching for information on the internet or playing videos on our phone (among many more)
These and many other actions make the information take up space in the memory of our device, which can cause us not to have an optimal operation of it. Resetting the phone to factory data seems like a good option when we have accumulated too much information on our mobile and it does not work as it should or when we are going to change mobile and we want to leave the phone “from scratch†for another person to use..
