Didn’t I create Ah Xu’s QQ channel recently~~ (now it has 5000+ members)~~, and this function can only be used on the latest version of QQ (not TIM)
Aside from other problems with QQ, the installation package of the latest version of QQ is nearly 900M, which may indeed make it difficult for many fans who do not have a lot of mobile phone memory.
Although Ah Xu currently has no way to provide you with a simplified version of QQ with QQ channels~~ (after all, this function is still in internal testing)~~, but at least I can provide you with some methods & APPs to clean up the space on your phone
WeChat cleaning
Here I still want to talk about the most criticized WeChat space occupation problem
WeChat has its own cleaning function
Many people may not be able to use WeChat’s own chat history cleaning function at all. Ah Xu will briefly explain it, open WeChat Settings»General»Storage»Chat History»Management
Here you can see in detail which group chats and which people 's chat records you have accounted for the bulk of WeChat's storage
The most important thing is that many people may not even notice the filtering function at the bottom!
From here, you can directly filter by pictures, videos, and files , and it is divided into group chats and specific contacts!
I cleared nearly 200M useless short videos directly from a chat group
Depth Buffer Cleanup
In addition to chat history cleaning, WeChat actually launched a WeChat deep cache cleaning function not long ago, but this function is hidden a bit deep, and it is still in the process of grayscale testing
The meaning of the grayscale test is that not everyone can use it! If your WeChat version is above 8.0.15, you can follow the steps below to see if you have been tested by Grayscale~
Open WeChat Settings » Help and Feedback » Click the wrench in the upper right corner
If you have "deep cleaning" at the bottom of the page, it means that you are lucky to be grayscaled, and you can experience this function
After turning on the "Deep Clean" function in the above picture, you still need to go to Settings » Storage Space to perform the cleanup operation
Since Ah Xu has not been grayscaled, here we can only borrow someone else's picture to show the difference before and after turning on "deep cleaning":
It can be seen that the cleaning effect is indeed much stronger after it is turned on. Basically, the cache can be cleaned up twice as much.
And this cleaning will not affect the chat history, it is to clean up the original small program and the Moments cache for several months
backup restore method
And Ah Xu thinks the most reliable method is this backup and restore method
The specific method is to use the WeChat computer to back up all the chat records, then uninstall the WeChat APP, and restore the chat records after reinstalling the APP
Rest assured that this method will not lose any chat history!
Ah Xu used this method to measure before: I used to use 10 G, but after some operations, it directly reduced the occupation by half
The use of WeChat backup chat records is that it really only backs up chat records, and does not back up to various junk cache files. In disguise, it realizes the perfect cleaning of junk files other than chat records.
QQ Browser (Android)
Then let’s talk about APP recommendation, but I didn’t expect it? First of all, what I want to recommend to you is not a special cleaning app, but a QQ browser
The reason for this is: Although many third-party apps provide WeChat/QQ clearing functions, some apps may cause WeChat/QQ files and even chat records to be cleaned up by mistake.
For the cleaning of such files, I think it is Ah Xu who is launched by the official itself, and I can recommend it to everyone with confidence!
Originally, it was supposed to recommend Tencent’s own “Tencent Files” APP to everyone—it provides WeChat/QQ special clearing function
However, due to the adjustment of the development team, the "Tencent Documents" APP will stop operating and maintaining in April 2021
You may think: "Hey, can't you continue to use this Tencent file app?"
But in fact , the WeChat/QQ special clearing function of your Tencent files is outdated, or the functions are not as rich as those provided in the QQ browser
Although it is a bit outrageous to integrate file management functions into a browser, at least the functions are indeed practical
Regarding WeChat Cleanup, compared with WeChat’s built-in cleaning function, it can further clean up thumbnails, chat emoticons , or specifically clean up documents , etc.
In addition, compared with QQ's built-in cleaning function, QQ Special Cleaner has an additional function to clean up useless files in QQ !
PS: Since Ah Xu used an Android backup machine to test the screenshots, so many files were not screened out
In addition to WeChat/QQ Zhuanqing, the file management function of QQ browser also has other file management functions, but these functions may not be as easy to use as the APP to be introduced next.
QQ browser APP can be downloaded from the official website
Storage Cleanup (Android)
Behind the unpretentious name is the ultimate ease of use, 94% of the users gave 5⭐ praise in the 1.7W evaluation
However, the premise of being easy to use requires cost. This is actually a paid app, and it is almost impossible to use it without paying after the trial period.
But the paid price is actually not expensive. When it is discounted, you can buy a one-year usage right for 3.5 yuan
All functions of the APP are only related to cleaning, and they are very intuitive and clear
First of all, it is worth mentioning that the APP also provides WeChat, QQ, TIM, and Weibo APP garbage cleaning functions, and Ah Xu did not find any user feedback on cleaning up by mistake during the investigation !
Moreover, the WeChat/QQ special clearing function of this app is the most detailed clearing app that Ah Xu has ever seen.
You can delete the picture and video caches of the circle of friends alone, and you can also delete the caches of the public account separately...
And for those cache folders that often need to be cleaned up, we can add it to "Periodic Cleanup", and these files will be automatically cleaned up every once in a while(最快1小时清理一次)
It may take you a lot of time to set up for the first time, but after setting it up, it is once and for all~
In addition, compared with many cleaning apps, the advantage is that you can clean up "empty folders" with one click, and specifically screen out "suspected cache" files
And according to the importance of the path where the file is located, the app also gives a note on whether to clean up
Generally, programmers will follow the development documents in the process of App development. The establishment and naming of folders are based on the basis, so cleaning the App can clearly point out which files can be deleted and which files are not recommended to be deleted.
In the "installation package" cleanup option, it will also indicate whether you have already installed it, and you can also move these installation packages to the specified folder with one click
In addition to the above functions, the APP also has functions such as super search, one-click blocking of advertisements or cache generation, duplicate files, file notes, etc.
Under the concept of accepting payment for a high-quality APP, this APP is actually quite worth starting
Voicing (Android)
Then I want to recommend another conscience APP with rich functions and powerful functions.
The biggest feature of voicing is: cloud rules☁️
It is worth mentioning that all cleaning tools are to retain or delete files according to certain rules
When the APP is updated with new functions, new folders will be easily generated, and new junk files will naturally be generated—this is why cleaning the APP also needs to be updated all the time
At present, voicing has built-in 380 cloud cleaning rules, and it is being updated all the time
What is more considerate is that all high-risk data will be marked to prevent you from cleaning up by mistake
The reason why the APP is rich in functions is because it has many functions, and there are 27 functions:
Let's briefly introduce some functions:
- Miscellaneous file cleaning: you can scan the logs, log, cache, caches, tmf, tmp, tlog files in the mobile phone storage, most of these are miscellaneous and useless files, you can delete them with confidence
- Obsessive-compulsive disorder cleaning: This function will scan all files under /storage/emulated/0 (excluding Pictures, Downloads, Android, DICM folders), which is convenient for you to clean up
- Kill the folder: Some apps will create some advertising folders and add files continuously. Use this function to quickly lock this folder and prohibit adding and reading
- Automatic cleaning: select the items to be cleaned and executed at intervals according to your own needs
- …
There are quite a lot of voicing functions, so I won’t introduce them one by one. You can experience it by yourself after connecting the app:
APP official website: https://www.dircleaner.com/ is currently required by the telecommunications bureau and is being migrated, and it will be accessible after a while
It should be noted that the following functions are advanced functions and require payment:
- automatic cleaning
- Storage Classification Analysis
- Storage Size Analysis
- Duplicate file scan
- kill folder
- buffer memory
- App Kernel Removal
- Application Storage Analysis
- Custom rule cloud backup
- File Transfer Rules in the Cloud
However, the price of the APP is not too expensive, you can buy a permanent membership at 9.9
⚠️The last thing I want to explain is: In the previous version of Qingzhuo APP, the WeChat cache was cleared, and the application data was cleared by mistake, resulting in the deletion of the chat history
Although the author has fixed this problem in the latest version, what if there is another problem...
This is why Ah Xu suggested to try to use the cleaning function provided by Tencent official (QQ browser) to avoid this situation
Cheetah Clean Master (Android)
Cheetah Cleaning Master is a real old domestic cleaning app. The earliest launch time can be traced back to 2013. The (此时为3.4.0版本)
predecessor of the APP is Jinshan Cleaning Master
With more than 10 years of technical accumulation, the cleaning effect is indeed good, but now the APP is full of advertisements, which will inevitably be criticized
But Ah Xu has a special version without ads, which is really worth recommending
First of all, we are well versed in the domestic market, not only providing WeChat/QQ special clearing, but also short video special clearing such as Douyin Kuaishou!
Moreover, the WeChat/QQ Zhuanqing is indeed better than Tencent's official one, with more subdivisions!
In addition, there is an exclusive system debris cleaning function, which can increase the speed of the mobile phone while cleaning debris
There is also a very useful function called "Slow Card Optimization". According to Cheetah: If many apps are restarted and updated frequently, there will be a lot of redundant code, which will slow down the running speed of the app.
Cheetah Master has ten years of experience and can help us recompile the App and increase the running speed of the App by at least 50%!
In addition to the above main functions related to cleaning, there are also practical functions such as private photo album, automatic antivirus, resume leak detection, application lock, and mobile phone photo recovery.

SD Maid (Android)
The last thing I want to recommend is SD Maid, which was also recommended before. Since its launch in 2011, it still has a high score of 9.1, so you can roughly know how easy this app is to use.
And the key point is that this APP is easy to find the premium version
The above picture is also the main cleaning function of SD Maid, if it is practical, it will mainly use these
In addition, SD Maid also supports functions such as duplicate file cleaning, storage analysis, and scheduled tasks
That is, it is not recommended that you use SD Maid to clean up WeChat/QQ files, this app does not specifically optimize these apps
Although the advanced version of SD Maid can import custom cleaning rules (like voicing), although some authors have made SD Maid’s WeChat/QQ special cleaning rules, Ah Xu investigated and found that there seems to be no long-term maintenance. some charge
Therefore, I suggest that you still use the APPs recommended above to perform WeChat/QQ special clearing.

You can see that this article hardly introduces iOS cleaning tools. This is because the file system of iOS is different from that of Android, so cleaning up garbage cannot be done by third-party apps like Android.
Cleaning apps on iOS are basically implemented by filling the remaining space and then triggering the space optimization function that comes with iOS
If you want to clean up the space on iOS, you should study the first point of this article carefully, and make good use of the chat history cleaning/cache cleaning functions that come with each APP!
PS: Considering that the mobile phone space of many girls is almost occupied by photos/videos, I still recommend you to review the original article by Ah Xu, choose 2 reliable photo album backup apps, and store all the photos in the cloud to save time. This will free up a lot of local space: https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/qiRu-tC_5kysQISgrv5xYw
