2. Tap Build number 7 times until it says “You are now a developer!”
3. Go back to Settings > Developer options
2. Reduce or Disable AnimationsInside Developer Options:
Find:
- Window animation scale
- Transition animation scale
- Animator duration scale
Change all of them from 1x → 0.5x or Off
This makes your phone feel faster when opening or switching apps.
3. Clear Cached Data1. Go to Settings > Storage > Cached data
2. Tap Clear cache
This removes temporary files that slow down your system.
Tip: Do this once or twice a week for smoother performance.
