Now Speed Up Your Old iPhones With These Easy Tips

Image credit : YouTube One of the most feature-rich iOS versions to date, iOS 14 from Apple is beloved for the way it looks and functions on newer iPhone models. But, if you recently updated to the new software and are still using an older iPhone, it can feel a little sluggish. Before beginning troubleshooting, we advise you to give the OS some time to adapt. However, if the issue continues, use these easy suggestions to speed up your outdated, sluggish iPhone:

Force Restart Your Device

This may seem like a fairly simple manoeuvre, but occasionally it's sufficient to get things moving. Here's how to accomplish it on several iPhones: Just press and immediately release the volume up button on an iPhone 8 or later or an iPad without a home button. Next, quickly press and release the volume down button. Once finished, simply maintain pressure on the power button until the Apple logo appears. Push and hold the side button and the volume down button at the same time on an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus. The Apple logo ought to appear as a result. Press and hold the power and home buttons at the same time on an iPhone 6s or later or an iPad with a Home Button. Your phone should restart and the Apple logo should appear. Check to see if the performance has improved after doing this. You don't need to worry about looking over the other advice given here if it has.

Check For The Latest Update

You're not necessarily using the greatest software just because your iPhone is running the most recent OS version. It's recommended to keep your device updated at all times because Apple frequently releases new OS versions with minor and big bug patches. Simply see if there is a fresh software update that might resolve some problems.

Close unnecessary apps

The majority of iPhones are fairly adept at multitasking, but if you have a lot of resource-hungry apps open, such photo/video editors or games, your iPhone may lag or become unresponsive. This is particularly obvious on older phones that can have limited memory. If you want your iPhone to run faster, you should force-quit any apps that you aren't using right now.

Free up space on your iPhone

If none of the aforementioned techniques speed up your iPhone, it's possible that your device's storage is overstuffed and needs to be cleaned up. Go to Settings → General → iPhone Storage to see how much space you still have. I advise deleting large files like music, images, and videos as well as removing any software you no longer use.

Keep Close Tabs On Resource Hogging Features

All smartphones, including iPhones, contain some resource-heavy features like background app refresh and location services that could have a significant negative influence on the speed of your device. We advise you to monitor them and exercise command. Be sure to investigate them because you can frequently locate them in your settings apps.
