Over time, your Samsung Galaxy S25 may start to slow down, freeze, or experience app crashes — often due to excessive cached data. Cache files help apps load faster by storing temporary information, but when they accumulate or become corrupted, they can cause performance issues. To restore smooth operation, it’s important to know how to clear cache on your Samsung S25 safely and effectively.

In this AvNexo guide, we’ll walk you through both app-level and system-level cache clearing methods.

What Is Cache and Why Should You Clear It?

Cache is temporary data stored by apps and the system to speed up loading times. For example, your browser stores website images and cookies, while social media apps save thumbnails and session data.

However, large or outdated cache files can lead to:

  • Sluggish performance

  • App freezing or crashing

  • Storage shortage

  • Battery drain

Regularly clearing cache removes this clutter, freeing up space and improving responsiveness.

Method 1: Clear App Cache Individually

If only one app is causing problems (like YouTube, Instagram, or Chrome), clearing its cache usually solves the issue.

Steps to Clear App Cache:

  1. Open Settings.

  2. Go to Apps.

  3. Find and select the app you want to clean.

  4. Tap Storage.

  5. Tap Clear Cache.

✅ Tip from AvNexo: Don’t tap Clear Data unless necessary — that option deletes saved info, like logins and app preferences.

Repeat the process for other apps you use often. This is especially useful for browsers, messaging apps, and social media platforms, which tend to build up large cache files.

Method 2: Clear System Cache (via Recovery Mode)

If your Galaxy S25 feels slow overall, clearing the system cache partition helps remove temporary system files without affecting your personal data.

Steps to Clear System Cache:

  1. Turn off your phone completely.

  2. Press and hold Volume Up + Side Key until the Samsung logo appears.

  3. When the Android Recovery Menu appears, release both buttons.

  4. Use the Volume keys to highlight Wipe Cache Partition.

  5. Press the Power button to select it.

  6. Confirm by selecting Yes.

  7. Once complete, select Reboot System Now.

Your phone will restart with a refreshed system cache, often resulting in smoother performance and better battery efficiency.

Method 3: Use Device Care Optimization

Samsung’s Battery and Device Care feature automatically cleans junk files and optimizes performance.

  1. Go to Settings → Battery and Device Care.

  2. Tap Storage.

  3. Review temporary files and delete unnecessary items.

  4. Tap Optimize Now to finish the process.

This is the easiest way to handle basic cache cleaning without entering recovery mode.

Extra Tips from AvNexo

  • Clear cache once every few weeks for best performance.

  • Avoid third-party “cleaner” apps — they often add unnecessary processes and consume more memory.

  • Keep your phone updated via Settings → Software Update for improved optimization.

  • Restart your phone after clearing cache to allow the system to rebuild essential files smoothly.

Final Thoughts

Clearing cache on your Samsung Galaxy S25 is one of the easiest ways to maintain speed, stability, and efficiency. Whether you’re dealing with slow apps, laggy performance, or low storage, these steps from AvNexo ensure your device stays optimized without risking your data.

Regular maintenance keeps your phone running like new — fast, clean, and reliable.
