A large number of users are convinced that the device needs to be rebooted from time to time in order for the smartphone to function properly and to extend the battery life. The rest of the phone owners believe that the reboot does not affect the overall performance of the gadget in any way, so there is no need to reboot it.
During a reboot, all background programs and processes are stopped and closed. How often it is required and whether it is required at all depends on the specific device, its technical characteristics, the version of the operating system and the operating conditions.
The reboot process has no effect on prolonging battery life. The battery fulfills its direct duty even when the device is turned off. The ability to hold a charge directly depends on the number of charge-discharge cycles.
A reboot is also not required for good device performance. The smartphone does not keep background processes in RAM for an infinitely long time, the device rationally spends its resources, unloading unnecessary ones, based on the settings and the physical availability of free memory.
If the user does not manually clear the RAM, the operating system itself will close the processes that interfere with it, which negatively affect the overall performance.
Reset is only needed in cases when applications start to crash, show an unknown error, or freeze. Even so, you can use a third-party cleaning application and perform a comprehensive cleaning of software junk.
In all other cases, when the smartphone is working stably, the reboot only hurts: the battery consumes the charge for the simultaneous launch of all closed processes, and the system needs a certain time to set up for further stable operation.
It is worth noting that after turning on, the launch of daily used applications will take a little longer than if the system kept an already running process in its memory.
