Device optimization can significantly improve the performance, security, efficiency, and reliability of your devices, whether it\’s a smartphone, computer, tablet, or any other electronic gadget. Optimized devices are less likely to be compromised because they have fewer security gaps and are better able to defend against attacks. Before we go into the juicy benefits of device optimization let’s look at what it really means.   What is Device Optimization? Device optimization means to boost and improve the performance of digital devices such as laptops and smartphones, to ensure that they are reliable, efficient, and secure.   How to Optimize Your Devices In 2024, here are some device optimization hacks you need to know and do, to get the best out of your devices;  Regular Updates: Always keep your device\’s operating system and apps up to date. Updates often include bug fixes, security patches, and performance enhancements.   Uninstall Unused Apps: Remove apps that you rarely use. These apps can consume storage space, drain battery life, and sometimes even run background processes that slow down your device.   Clear Cache: Periodically clear cache files from your device. Cached data can accumulate over time and occupy unnecessary space, slowing down performance. You can usually clear the cache through settings in your device.   Disable Background Apps: Many apps continue running in the background even when you\’re not actively using them. Disable background activity for apps that you don\’t need constantly running to conserve battery and resources.   Limit Widgets and Animations: While widgets and animations can enhance user experience, they can also consume system resources. Limit the number of widgets on your home screen and reduce animation effects to improve performance.   Manage Storage: Regularly review and manage your device\’s storage. Delete unnecessary files, such as old photos, videos, and documents, and transfer large files to cloud storage or an external drive to free up space.   Optimize Battery Settings: Adjust your device\’s battery settings to optimize performance. This may include enabling battery saver mode, reducing screen brightness, disabling location services when not needed, and managing background app refresh.   Use Lightweight Apps: Whenever possible, opt for lightweight alternatives to resource-intensive apps. There are often lite versions of popular apps available that consume less memory and data.   Enable Data Saving Mode: Activate data saving mode on your device to reduce data usage and optimize performance, especially when using mobile networks. Utilize Built-in Optimization Tools: Many devices come with built-in optimization tools or battery-saving modes. Explore these features in your device\’s settings and enable them to improve performance.   Restart Your Device Regularly: Restarting your device can help clear temporary files, refresh system processes, and resolve minor software glitches that may be slowing down performance.   Install Antivirus Software: Protect your device from malware and viruses by installing reputable antivirus software or regularly updating the built-in antivirus protection on your computer. Malware can significantly degrade device performance and compromise security.   Monitor Resource Usage: Use built-in or third-party tools to monitor resource usage on your device. Identify apps or processes that are consuming excessive CPU, memory, or battery and take appropriate action.   Consider Factory Reset: If your device is still sluggish despite trying various optimization hacks, consider performing a factory reset. This will erase all data and settings, restoring your device to its original state and potentially resolving performance issues. It can be heartbreaking, but can definitely save your device’s life.   By implementing these device optimization hacks, you can enhance the performance, efficiency, and longevity of your electronic devices, your business or education can also run more seamlessly and with less glitches.

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY TO ALL OUR SUPER-WOMEN: INSPIRE INCLUSION

ITSA Celebrate With You
/

by UGOCHUKWU, CHIAMAKA LILY    As we commemorate International Women\’s Day (IWD) this year, it\’s crucial to reflect on the progress made in advancing gender equality while acknowledging the persistent challenges that women around the world continue to face. March 8th is not just a date on the calendar; it\’s a global reminder of the ongoing struggle for women\’s rights and empowerment. This year\’s theme, \”Inspire Inclusion\” underscores the interconnectedness of women\’s empowerment with the well-being and progress of societies worldwide, with consideration to other aspects of identity, such as race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and disability. Here are a few ways to inspire for significant change;   Inspire Through Education: Education has always been a cornerstone of women\’s empowerment. When women are educated, they are better equipped to make informed decisions about their lives, health, and future. Unfortunately, millions of girls worldwide still lack access to quality education due to various socio-economic factors. On this International Women\’s Day, let us recommit ourselves to ensuring equal educational opportunities for all girls, regardless of their background or circumstances. By investing in girls\’ education, we are investing in a brighter, more equitable future for everyone. By this high-flying women will inspire the girls behind them.   Breaking Barriers in the Workplace: In many parts of the world, women continue to face barriers to full participation in the workforce. Gender discrimination, unequal pay, and lack of access to leadership positions are just some of the challenges that women encounter in the workplace. As we celebrate International Women\’s Day, let us advocate for workplace policies that promote gender equality and support women\’s career advancement. By breaking down these barriers, and glass ceilings like Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, we can create inclusive work environments where all individuals have the opportunity to thrive and succeed.   Championing Women\’s Health and Well-being: Women\’s health is a fundamental aspect of their overall well-being and empowerment. Yet, women and girls often face significant barriers to accessing essential healthcare services, including reproductive health care, maternal care, and mental health support. On this International Women\’s Day, let us reaffirm our commitment to ensuring universal access to comprehensive healthcare services for women and girls worldwide. By prioritizing women\’s health, we can inspire them to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives and contribute to the well-being of their families and communities.   Ending Gender-Based Violence: Gender-based violence remains a pervasive and devastating human rights violation that affects women and girls of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life. Whether it\’s domestic violence, sexual assault, or harmful practices like child marriage and female genital mutilation, no woman should ever have to live in fear or endure violence. This International Women\’s Day, let us stand in solidarity with survivors of gender-based violence and renew our commitment to ending this epidemic once and for all. By raising awareness, providing support services, and advocating for policy change, we can create a world where all women and girls can live free from violence and oppression.   Conclusion: As we celebrate International Women\’s Day, let us remember that women\’s rights are human rights, and gender equality is essential for the advancement of humanity as a whole. By empowering women and girls, we are not only unlocking their full potential but also building a more just, equitable, and prosperous world for everyone. This International Women\’s Day, let us recommit ourselves to inspiring the voices of women and work together to create a future where every woman and girl can thrive, flourish, and realize her dreams.
