This Is How Often You Should Restart Your Phone

For many of us, our smartphones have become a touchstone of life.But are you taking proper care of it?

對我們大多數人來說，手機已經成為了我們生活水平的檢驗標準。但是你有沒有好好照料你的手機呢?

Experts say that knowing simple care tips, such as how often to shut it down, can drastically（大幅度的） affect how well your phone will continue to perform the older it gets.

專家稱了解一些簡單的維護技巧，比如多久關機一次，會大大影響手機的持續使用效果。

But just how often do we need to shut off our smartphones?

那么我們需要多久關一次機呢？

As opposed to how often you need to shut down your computer, your smartphone has a more hard and fast rule you should live by:

與電腦關機的時間間隔不同，對于手機，你應該遵守一個更嚴格的準則：

once a week, shut it off, let it rest at least one minute, and then you can fire it back up.

每周一次，將它關機，讓它休息至少一分鐘，然后你可以再啟動它。

There are multiple reasons why you're supposed to restart your phone at least once a week, and it's for a good cause:retaining memory, preventing crashes, running more smoothly, and prolonging（延長）battery life.

讓你這么做有很多理由，而且理由充足：維護手機內存、防止崩潰、使運行更順暢和延長電池壽命。

Let's talk first about all the apps you use on a daily basis."In most cases, the app isn't really closed but rather, it's put into a state where it can be restarted faster,"

讓我們先來談談你每天使用的所有app。“大多數情況下，我們關掉的app沒有真的停止運行，而是處于一種可以更快啟動的狀態，”

says Bob Motamedi, a Los Angeles-based tech consultant."Now think about how many apps are open, slowly eating memory and battery power on the phone, and think about all those times you've thought that your phone drained entirely too fast that day."

洛杉磯的技術顧問鮑勃·莫泰麥迪說。“現在想想有多少app是開著的，它們慢慢消耗我們的手機內存和電量，再想想有那么多次你覺得電量耗盡太快。”

Restarting the phone clears open apps and memory leaks, and gets rid of anything draining your battery.Crashing happens for various reasons, but not restarting your phone can definitely have an effect here as well,

重啟可以關閉開著的app，清除內存漏洞，還能解決耗電問題。有各種原因會導致手機崩潰，但不重啟肯定也是一個原因，

as every update, page loaded, and app installed or deleted will add and remove code in the operating system of the phone.

因為每次更新、加載頁面和安裝或卸載app都會增加或刪除手機操作系統的代碼。

"Sometimes these remnants（殘余） are incompatible or improperly removed after installation or un-installation," says Motamedi."Restarting your phone will eliminate most of these issues and will get your phone working better."

“有時這些殘余不與手機兼容，或者在安裝或卸載后沒有被恰當地刪除，” 莫泰麥迪說。“重啟能解決大部分的這些問題，而且能使你的手機更好地運行。”

The good news is that even though failing to restart your phone periodically could zap memory and cause crashes, it won't directly kill your battery.

有一個好消息是，即使沒有定期重啟會占用手機內存和導致崩潰，但它不會直接損耗你的電池。

What could kill your battery is always rushing to recharge.

會損耗電池的行為是頻繁充電。

"If you never let your battery drain fully, it will never 'learn' to recharge fully and will shorten the battery's life," says Motamedi."It's recommended that you let the battery drain down to 0 percent, and then refill it back up to 100 percent."

“如果你從不把手機的電量用完，它也絕不會‘學習’如何充滿電，這會縮短電池的壽命，” 莫泰麥迪說。“我建議你們把電池的電量耗盡至0%，再把它重新充滿至100%。”

To help preserve memory and prevent crashes, consider restarting your smartphone at least once a week.We promise you won't miss too much in the two minutes it might take to reboot.

為了維護內存和防止手機崩潰，考慮一下至少每周重啟一次你的手機。我們向你保證，在重啟的兩分鐘內你不會錯過太多事情。
