8 Android Settings You Should Turn Off Right Now (Boost Speed & Privacy)
Your Android phone might be doing things behind your back — draining battery, wasting data, or tracking your habits.
But don’t worry — you can fix that in minutes. Here are 8 settings to turn off right now for better speed and privacy. ⚙️
1. “Usage & Diagnostics” Tracking
Go to Settings → Privacy → Usage & diagnostics, and switch it off.
This stops Google from collecting performance data from your phone.
2. Location History
You don’t need your phone to track everywhere you go. Turn off Google Location History to save battery and protect your privacy.
3. Background App Refresh
Apps keep running in the background even when not in use. Disable background refresh for non-essential apps.
4. Auto App Updates on Mobile Data
Change Play Store settings to update apps only on Wi-Fi. It saves data and prevents lag.
5. Nearby Device Scanning
Turn this off unless you’re using Bluetooth accessories frequently.
6. Always-On Display (if not needed)
Looks cool, but drains your battery faster.
7. Unused App Permissions
Review which apps have access to camera, mic, or location — disable unnecessary permissions.
8. Ads Personalization
Go to Settings → Privacy → Ads → Delete advertising ID to reduce targeted ads.
Wrap-Up
A few quick settings changes can make your Android feel faster, safer, and more private.
Try these now and thank yourself later. 💪
