However, sometimes these complex mini-computers can get overloaded and their performance slows down.

Thankfully there are a few ways to help boost your device’s performance and even get a stronger battery life from it.

One of these ways includes accessing your device’s RAM, or Random Access Memory, and clearing it.

RAM is where your phone remembers everything running on it, such as apps, browsers, the operating system, and more.

If your RAM is clogged up by applications, you may start to notice your smartphone slowing down.

This can include apps running more slowly, or even your phone becoming hot to the touch and running out of battery quicker.

As such, clearing your iPhone’s RAM can help with all of the above and more.

How to clear RAM

To clear RAM, you need to turn on AssertiveTouch. To do this go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > toggle on AssistiveTouch.

You should now see a circular button on the screen > tap it to see a menu of touch options pop up.

Head back to Settings > tap General > select Shut Down > tap once on the AssistiveTouch button.

Finally, touch and hold the virtual Home button in AssistiveTouch until your screen flashes.

Now your RAM has been successfully cleared on your iPhone, simply enter your password if prompted.
