It’s Important To Do A Digital Spring Cleaning

We all do spring cleaning in our house, but this might be even more necessary.  It's an easy guide for spring cleaning your DIGITAL life:

1.  Your browser.  It can store LOTS of info, like your browsing history, your favorite websites, and your passwords.  And it's good to go through it every once in a while to delete cookies and make sure everything is up-to-date.

2.  Your smartphone.  If you don't regularly clean out your phone's call logs, search history, and text messages, there can be a lot of clutter slowing down your device.

3.  Your apps.  You should scan your phone or tablet's app list a couple times a year and delete anything you're no longer using.  It could improve your device's speed and battery life, plus those old apps might be secretly collecting data on you.

4.  Old accounts you no longer use.  Instead of just abandoning old accounts you no longer use, you should go in and actually delete each one.  That way there's less of a risk to you if the company's data ever gets breached.

5.  Your photos.  We all have a million pictures clogging up our phones and computers.  It's worth it to spend some time organizing them and deleting any duplicates.  There's even a program called Remo Duplicate Photos Remover that can help you do it.
