Downlaod and experience Clean Master
Spring is in the air folks and you know what that means, spring cleaning. When people say, “spring cleaning” people always think about cleaning their house or office, but it doesn’t stop there. Your phone might need a little as well, especially if it’s not running like it was when you first took it out of the box. We actually did a post about that last year, but there is a newer app on the scene that will assist you in cleaning your cache, uninstalling apps, and deleting files, bookmarks, and text messages. It’s called Clean Master from Ksmobile, and it reminds me of CCleaner for Windows. It’s so simple to use, that I guarantee that after using the app for a few minutes, your phone will be as good as new again.
History has two parts and the first is your cache, which are temporary files created by all your apps. Over time they accumulate and take up a lot of unnecessary space as well as drain your memory. Just tap “History” and you will get a list of all your installed apps as well as how much cache storage each one has. The majority of them will be classified as System Cache. Clean Master will already check off the ones that it feels you should delete, and it will also go as far as tell you what you shouldn’t delete. You can still uncheck or check any of the apps if you so wish. Just tap clean, and presto, it will delete all the cache files from the selected apps. To give you a point of reference, my current phone is about 4 months old, and my total cache was 821MB. Cleaning your cache is probably something you should do every week or so. The second part of History covers your residual files such as music, videos, documents, etc. You can quickly see all these types of files as well as how much space they are taking. Just checkoff the ones you want deleted and tap clean.
Next up is Privacy. In Privacy, you can delete SMS/MMS messages, Call Logs, and Search History. For both SMS/MMS and Call Logs, you will have the choice of deleting all history or by contact. One thing I would like to see is the ability to tell Clean Master to only delete messages that are older than a certain amount of days. This way you can still keep some of your more current messages, and is something they may include in a future update. If you tap on Search History, you will be given a list of the apps that are saving such data like your Browser, YouTube, Gmail, Google Search, etc. Unfortunately Chrome doesn’t show up in this list, but is something that should be rectified soon. In addition to Clean Master’s built in deleting mechanism, the app will also take you to the stock Android app page for individual apps so that you can clear data manually, which would also remove account settings and passwords.
Tasks is simply a task killer. It’s not a task manager, which would supersede Android’s task managing abilities, of which I’m totally against. This is a manual task killer, which probably isn’t all that necessary since every Android phone UI has it’s own built in version. Nevertheless, Clean Master lets you checkoff a bunch of apps to close at the same time.
Last but not least is the App Manager, which lets you uninstall apps as well as backup apks. Android already makes it fairly easy to uninstall apps, but Clean Master makes things easier when you are really looking to delete a lot of apps. It will list all apps installed on the device as well as any third party apks. You can check off the ones you want to be uninstalled and bingo, Clean Master will get rid of them in one swoop. If you want to backup any apks, you can do that as well, but keep in mind, it won’t backup app data even if you’re rooted.
So there you have it. Clean Master is quick and painless and will help you free up a lot of space that will enable your phone to be a little bit more like it was the day you first turned it on. Of course, we can all use the extra space for more music or pictures as well. It’s absolutely free in the Play Store, so give it a shot and let me know what you think.

Clean Master supports the following languages: German, Italian, Spanish, Korean, Russian, Simplified Chinese (China), Portuguese, Vietnamese, Hungarian.
