Is your smartphone or tablet slowing down? Closing your open apps could help.

If your smartphone or tablet is slowing down, closing your open apps could help speed it up. When you “close” most apps on a smartphone or tablet, it actually remains in memory running in the background. Over time you may have dozens of apps running in the background which can make it feel slower. Read the instructions in the articles below to close open apps.

When I wanted a new computer in July 2003, I turned to Mark of Computer Techs who guided me thru the entire process. He helped me choose the right computer for my needs, migrated my old programs, and installed DSL and added a Spam Blocker and other necessary software. He was extremely knowledgeable and courteous.When I need technical assistance, it is wonderful not having to explain over the phone to a stranger, but have him come to the house and do hands on help.His fees are very reasonable and I would recommend him to anyone.

Just to drop you a quick note to tell you how impressed I am with your service. Your visit was quick, you were on time, and dressed very professional!!! In addition, you were concerned about my time and money, trying to keep it under two hours, which you did!! You also explained things so well (in plain English) I felt I really understood… My computer is running so well and fast, with no pop-ups, junk mail, etc. I would like to thank you so very much for everything you did for us. Thank you 🙂
