I swear, this app's favourite phrase is "Keep your phone running smoothly." since nearly ALL notifications, have this message in one way or another. Leaves notifications about my phone needing to be "optimised" despite it already being optimised and running fast. Wish I can disable notifications from this app.

Using this triggers all apps that "run at startup". Any app you turned OFF "allow to use battery in background" automatically turns back on! It sucks going through each app's phone settings to optimize them, but it's a pretty solid "one and done"! Afterwards, periodically clearing cache for apps you use often works well. [I have a Samsung phone.] I'm sure there are apps you can pay for that do a great job. I am not a professional. Always do your own research! :)

Update: Still junk 2 years after original review... I'd like to know whos draining my battery, you are suppose to tell me, you dont. Original review: Constantly wants me to optimize while using the app it wants to optimize. Clean storage just to have it full of the same 635mg in 2 seconds for you to clean again? Literally. Then again and again. It doesn't actually clean the storage clearly. It does prevent other apps from working properly. Edited

I agree with lot of other reviewers here: this used to be such a simple, yet useful app. A five-star app! Now, in Android 10, and the latest updates to this app, it's become overly "cutesy" and doesn't perform as nearly well or intuitively as in previous versions. In fact, it can't even "see" the eleven large apps I have stored -- and running -- on my SD card. (Used to "see" them every time!) Those 11 apps all still work fine and as before....but Device Care only recognizes them when first installed or updated. Then, as soon as one of those apps is opened, Device Care no longer recognizes it's existence on the SD card any more....even though the app's still there and running just fine. Edited

You completely ruined the usefulness of this app when you took away the button to clear excess storage caches. I depend on my phone to do my job. It is necessary to keep my caches cleared out and my storage low so that the apps I use for my work will run quickly and smoothly. I had been running my phone at below 50% of my storage, thanks to using the clean now button on the storage page frequently. Since the last update my storage amount has jumped dramatically. I cannot clear out my caches and it doesn't seem like it is being automatically done when the phone optimizes. All the numbers listed for storage in various locations are the same as when I was running my storage below 50%, yet now I have about a gig more storage used than before with no apparent reason and no way to clear that out. This is slowing down the response time in my work apps and causing me to lose productivity and income. PLEASE do something to solve this problem and let us run our phone devices efficiently again!
