"What is Cache Data & what does it do?" - Let's know about it! Salam Xiaomi Fans, Greetings from Xiaomi Community Bangladesh. Hope everyone is well and stays safe as well. Some persons ask me 'What is Cache Data & what does it do?' "is it safe to clean?" So, Let's talk about this Topic 😉 App cache? What is this? Cached data are files, images and other media files stored on your devices by an app or a website. Cached data is app-specific and is stored by an app in a reserved space so that every time you load the app, it already has information ready to show you quickly. For instance, the layout of a website may be saved as cached data so that the next time you visit the page, it will load faster. Clearing the cached data sometimes helps make apps run smoother. It removes the old data that’s no longer necessary until you open the same app next time. Clearing the cache isn’t a permanent solution because it stacks up again. Still, it does give an extra boost to your device. This method is helpful in the case of big apps like Facebook and Instagram, which store tons of images and other data on your device. • Take an example of your Facebook profile picture. Facebook caches it and stores it into your internal storage so that the next time you open Facebook, the app won’t need to download your image again from the servers to show it on your profile. The app takes it from your storage. And, you guessed it, since clearing cache might lead to the app downloading the necessary files again, a lot of your data will be consumed. So, unless you’re on Wi-Fi or a public hotspot, we don’t recommend cleaning it. Now, have you understand 'What is Cache Data'? Let us know in Comment 🤗👇 By, Tanim Mi Community - Bangladesh
