Smartphone Tips: Can apps really increase your phone's RAM? Know the truth..

 | 
Social media

Nowadays, you get to see many such videos on social media and many such apps on the Play Store that claim that by using these apps, the RAM of your smartphone will increase and the phone will become much faster than before. But is it true? If you also feel something like this or you are already using any such app, then first know its truth.

It is not possible to increase physical RAM with the app.
Tech experts say that it is not possible to increase the physical RAM of the mobile through any app. RAM is a hardware part that can only be fitted in the phone by the company. On the other hand, these apps do not increase the RAM, but free up some space by clearing the apps and cache files running in the background, due to which, for some time, it seems that the phone has become fast, but in the long term, it can make your phone even slower.

The virtual RAM feature can help.
However, nowadays, many such smartphones have also come out in which the companies themselves are giving a great feature like Virtual RAM. With the help of this feature, the phone uses some part of the internal storage as RAM, which improves the performance even more, but this is also not a replacement for hardware RAM. While buying a phone, you should also take special care of how much physical RAM is in the phone and how much virtual RAM is available.

Threat to privacy and data

Some mobile companies nowadays are introducing phones by adding Virtual RAM. That is, the meaning is clear: if your device really needs more RAM, then only buying a new phone or the company's official Virtual RAM feature can help you get a little better performance, but trusting a third-party app can become a big threat to your privacy and data.
