The Galaxy S23 comes with top-of-the-line hardware and software. However, you might occassionally need to close open apps to boost performance.
If users find that their Galaxy S23 is lagging while opening apps and switching from one app to another, or taking longer than usual to refresh an app’s content, they should consider closing some or all the apps running in the background. To do this, open Recent Apps by swiping up from the bottom of the screen and holding for a second towards the center, or tap the Recent Apps button (if navigation buttons are enabled), which opens a preview of all the apps running at the moment. To close an open app, swipe left or right to locate it, and then swipe up on the preview card to manually shut it down.
Close All Open Apps On The Galaxy S23
Generally, the apps people use daily, including social media and messaging apps, take up about a few hundred megabytes each. Demanding apps like video editors or games could occupy a gigabyte of RAM or more. Since users regularly open and switch between multiple apps, they can increase the load on the Galaxy S23’s memory, and there’s a chance that they might fill out the available RAM. When this happens, the phone struggles to accommodate new apps or run the ones in the memory.
Sometimes, users might need to close an open app because that particular app isn’t performing as it should. It could be a case of sluggishness, or the app getting stuck on the screen. In these cases, opening Recent Apps, closing that specific app, and then opening it again causes it to restart, often solving minor issues with performance. So whether it’s one app that’s causing trouble, or the Galaxy S23 having performance issues, closing open apps can often be a quick and easy fix.
