Just like spring cleaning your home, it’s important to spring clean your electronic devices too. Here our top tech spring cleaning tips:

  1. Dust and disinfect

    Did you know your cell phone is the dirtiest piece of technology you own and can have over 17,000 bacterial genes on it? Regularly wiping down your devices with a disinfectant will help reduce germs. It is also good housekeeping to clean keyboards with an air duster and wipe down all your screens for a fresh start.
  1. Remove unused apps

    Having too many apps on your device can take up storage space and slow down its processor. Delete apps you don’t use regularly to save space and keep your device running smoothly.
  1. Clear your device cache

    When you visit a website, your browser stores information such as the location of the site you visited and files to run online applications and downloads. This stored information is called a cache. It’s a good idea to clear your cache on a regular basis to help protect your personal information and help applications on your device run better.
  1. Install updates and do a security scan

    Installing updates can help protect your devices from cyber threats and keep them working efficiently with other applications. In addition to installing updates, running a regular security scan can help identify threats to your devices and stop a potential security breach.
