Boost your Android smartphone performance

UCWeb launches UC Cleaner, a booster app to optimize Android’s performance and improve smartphone experience. Having accumulated half a million monthly active users in its beta-test period, UC Cleaner is the latest app from UCWeb’s mobile app portfolio for international markets, which includes UC Browser and 9Apps, a popular third-party app store.

Featuring an extremely simple and ad-free User Interface (UI), UC Cleaner is able to keep its size to less than 1.5MB. It can free up memory (RAM) and close apps that slow down a device. Its Super Booster feature can also disable auto-start apps in non-rooted devices (for Android 4.1 and later). This feature targets many devices that come along with pre-installed apps. UC Cleaner is able to analyze battery, data and storage usage and help users identify and delete resource-intensive, rarely-used apps and junk files that take up phone storage space. With only a few easy clicks, users can significantly speed up their devices.

Talking about the idea behind UC Cleaner, James Wong, Product Manager, UC Cleaner says, “As smartphones become ubiquitous, we are highly dependent on cleaner apps to manage usage. However, many Android cleaner apps themselves are large in size and resource-intensive, which is contrary to their original intention. UC Cleaner is compact in size but does not compromise on functionality. With UC Cleaner, we’re taking a new approach to boosting performance while minimizing extra burden on the system.”
