Avast Cleanup – Phone Cleaner

Been using the app for 5 years and was initially impressed by how functional and time saving it was. Most apps these days take up a lot of space, so it was helpful to have an app that could solve that problem. However, the app is kinda mid now. Can't even clean unwanted and hidden files etc, without sending me back to the quick clean section everytime I choose finish cleaning. An absolute waste and scummy tactic to force you to spend money when they previously allowed you to use "free" premium.

I purchased Avast Ultimate and was offered 'Cleanup' for free. I didn't really need it when it was free, and I need it even less now they expect me to pay for it. The cleanup features aren't that great, plus I dislike apps that are 'free' to start with but then they expect you to pay to continue using them. Personally, I'd rather do without it, thank you. Uninstalled and binned it.

Like most people who use the phone for work and games, I've had serious battery life issues. Having to keep going through setup to force stop background app tasks to improve gets tedious as most of the apps are used each day and half of them leave tasks running once ' closed'. This app hibernates these background tasks easily, no hassle. Once the background app tasks were shut down, battery life improved to an acceptable once per day charging cycle. For me, worth every penny!
