Start with Device Care

On many Samsung Galaxy phones, Device Care can help you review battery, storage and memory information in one place. Menu names can vary between One UI versions.

Battery habits that matter

Check which apps are using the most battery, reduce unnecessary screen brightness and watch for poor cellular signal if your phone drains much faster in certain locations.

Storage management

Photos, videos, messaging downloads and large games often use the most space. Review large files before deleting anything important and keep some free space available for updates.

When performance feels slow

Restart the phone, update important apps and the operating system, and identify whether one recent app is using unusual battery, storage or background activity.

Note: Features and menu names can differ by model, software version, and region. Check your phone manufacturer’s official support pages for device-specific instructions.
