If you reside in a
developing country where access to the internet is still a luxurious privilege
that everyone can’t afford, especially in Nigeria, where the telecommunication
service providers are constantly tweaking and fiddling with data charges like a
dubious fuel attendant would on a fuel dispenser, then this post is for you. One
of the earliest disadvantages of the android OS is its penchant for background
application updates. While this was done in good fate to keep your smartphone
apps up to date, guarding against different forms of cyber attacks out there and bringing about seamless device
operation, it has however, brought unprecedented expenses in the amount that
android users spend on data charges.

Background app update is
only a mention on the list of resource-consuming processes on an android device
that can lead to untimely exhaustion of your data and slowness of your device.
Keeping applications on auto run even when their services are not required can
also lead to data and memory wastage. System applications are the only apps
that have the non-negotiable right to run at startups and all through the
system life cycle. As a user, it is advisable to run only needed applications
and only when needed. This will not only save you data but will free up your
internal memory, making sure that the RAM is reserved for the applications that
need it. This way, your device becomes optimized for speedy operation.
