If you rarely delete your phone\u2019s cache or temporary files, then that could be why you\u2019re experiencing a slow Internet connection on your phone.

This is because they are storing a lot of data (such as images and website information) so that you experience a shorter wait time the next time you load a website or Facebook page. This data that is stored is known as cache. The same thing happens with your web browser on your phone (though they typically store much less data). <\/span><\/p>\n
