RAM – Random Access Memory allows running background applications as many as we want. It is required for multitasking. It also required for playing high graphics enabled games.
Today all most all the smartphones come with a minimum of 512 MB RAM to a maximum of 2 GB and recurring. But what for the devices with low RAM? Can’t they be optimized for their best performance?
The answer is Yes, we can optimize the RAM of those low memory devices by following simple tricks shown below.
In this tutorial, I had shown mainly two methods. The first is to optimize RAM and the second one is to Increase RAM. Please do remember that there is a difference between “Optimize” and “Increase” RAM.

Abdul,
I was not aware of smart ram booster. Thank you for sharing. I find that many times I download too many applications to my phone and it definitely slows it down. Your post reminds me I need to delete some of them 🙂 Thank you.

hi Abdul Ghani plz tell me that from where i can check that is my celll ram is increased or not???i have completed all the steps mentioned in method 1. plz rply thanx
Abdul Ghani
Hello Irfan,
If the swapper app shows you “successfully done” then you can confirm that your phone’s ram is increased. Or you can also do another check by accessing the memory directly from file manager, see its size and the amount of space used.
That’s it. Hope you understood it.
Thanks,
