If you download an update to your computer or mobile phone, the device usually restarts automatically. If you have problems with your smartphone, laptop, etc., such as frozen apps or limited response, a restart is recommended to get the device running again.
With a so-called soft reset, the operating system is shut down completely. All running programs are closed, WLAN and SIM connections are set and the working memory is cleaned. Some bugs or other complications with the functionality can be fixed with it.
Smartphone restart: How often should I turn off my phone?
Even if there are no problems, it is recommended to use your cell phone switched off completely at regular intervals and then boot up again.
This allows you to completely close apps that are running in the background, eating up battery and slowing down your phone’s performance.
It would therefore be best to use the telephone once a week to shut down completely. This is a general recommendation, so you don’t need to set a weekly reminder.
