Phone update, apps boost vs clearing partition cache on the phone

[Star_girl]

I noticed after software update the app Good Guardians gives a notification to boost the apps on the phone. I was wondering which is best to do first, boost apps from Good Guardians or clearing partition cache? Or it really doesn't matter? Thank you

Thanks and how often should i bost appa

I've always wiped phones cache partition, then run app booster. But I don't think there is a best one to do first. Think either one first is fine 😊👍.

Stupid question, but do I need to clear the cache partition every time an update comes through? Why? 

[Star_girl]

Not stupid question. Not everyone is expected to know this.

To wipe partition cache on your S24U or other S24 series:
-turn your phone off
-remove any cases to avoid pressing wrong buttons
-connect your phone to a PC or another Samsung device, phone or tablet. Note only USB C to USB C cable will work.
-press the power button and top side of the volume button
-when the Samsung logo appears release Power Button and keep pressing top of Volume Button
-shortly the Boot Menu of the phone will appear
- read all the options, about the middle of the options you will see Wipe Partition Cache
-use volume up and down buttons to navigate the menu
-use power button to select Wipe Partition Cache and press it to activate Wipe Partition Cache
- wiping Partition Cache takes about a second, watch the bottom left of your phone to check if it's done
-when it's done, your phone will automatically select Reboot Phone System, which is on the top list of the menu
-press the power button to Reboot your phone, this is safe and it will not wipe any data on your phone
-when your phone is switched on remove the data cable and Wipe Partition Cache is done.

I had always just wiped the cache but saw the notification pop up to boost the apps but didn't think anything of it. Thanks for the recommendation 👍 I'll have to download it

I have done neither, and I feel my system and apps are all good. If I do encounter any unexpected issues though, I will fall back on these, but for the most part, I haven't had any issues on these flagships in a while. Only things that come to mind really are some camera quirks which are 99% sorted by a simple app cache and data clear.

Does doing either really make a difference? After the most recent update I cleared cache and the phone is the same as before, tbh it was a couple of days after the update I wiped the cache and didn't notice any difference

[Star_girl]

I believe it does. I am doing thus because with earlier phones I had problems with the battery and CPU were getting overwhelmed with residual memory and bugs, so I do it to prevent that from happening, even if it's a more capable phone, I want to take care of it.
