Android is a beautiful platform but there are minor problems that actually annoy an average user on daily basis. One of the biggest drawbacks is the fact that there are many apps that keep running in the background without the user’s knowledge. These background processes eat up all the system resources and hog your Android device’s battery which means that your Android phone or tablet runs out of battery juice way sooner than it should. It doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t download apps on your Android device but you should never let any app eat all your system resources. In order to keep apps from hogging down on your Android device’s battery juice and resources you should download a Task manager app to kill all the processes in the background and improve your Android device’s performance as well.
