In the excitement of getting a new phone, we install hundreds of apps in a just few days. Well, It's alright, but most of the apps store their cache, temporary files on the device. As a result, your device starts lagging and becomes way slower than Internet Explorer. Unlike Android, the iOS system doesn't allow us to clean up cache files and other temporary data which are no longer required by the app. However, there are some amazing tricks with which you can boost up your iDevice within a few minutes. Ready? Let's go!
1. Use PhoneClean
It's a great software to clean up junk files, cache, and other unnecessary data. No worries, it doesn't touch any of the personal files on your device such as photos, music, videos.etc It's completely safe to use. Here's how it works - You connect your device to PC, click on 'Start Scan', eat some cookies while you wait and finally hit 'Clean Up'. That's it!
The result is quite noticeable and your device will start running smoothly again! You can download the PhoneClean software for free on their official website. It's available for Windows and Mac platforms.

2. Disable System Animations
Now, it's possible to disable system animations with a small glitch. It's currently working on iOS 9.3 (beta versions) and on older versions as well. No need to download anything just go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Turn ON Assistive Touch. Move the Assistive Touch thing to the right-hand corner. Now, from the home screen, open spotlight search by sliding your finger down from the center of the screen. You will notice that the Assistive Touch thing moves upwards automatically once the keyboard pops up. Repeat the procedure until the automatic movement of Assistive Touch becomes fast. It indicates that the animations are turned off.

Note: This bug has been fixed by Apple on the latest iOS 9.3.2 beta 2. However, it would still work on the older firmwares.
3. Turn OFF Background App Refresh
Many apps are constantly fetching new data from the Internet to keep you up to date about new messages, notifications on Facebook.etc. Due to this, your device becomes really slow as the app processes keep running in the background.
You can easily turn OFF background app refresh and keep your phone flying smoothly. Head over to Settings > General > Background App Refresh. You can turn OFF this whole thing by just sliding the main switch. OR you can also turn this setting OFF for some apps. It's highly recommended to turn this setting OFF only for the apps that you don't use for communication. As the apps wouldn't be able to fetch new messages in the background.
4. Turn OFF iCloud
If you're not a big fan of iCloud, you may want to deactivate it as it keeps uploading data from your iDevice to the Internet. Whenever you capture a photo, text someone, write a note.etc iCloud automatically gets activated and starts doing its work. You can easily speed up your iDevice by turning it OFF. Go to Settings > iCloud and uncheck appropriate options.
Honestly, guys, I've noticed a difference while using my iPad (With deactivated iCloud) I would just say it's a battery monster and consumes a lot of RAM. Well, the final decision is up to you!
