iPhones are great, but sometimes they start acting up a little slow. You might have experienced apps crashing and slowing down by the passage of time. This might not be the worst feeling in the world, but it's a nuisance. Probably it has something to do with the iPhone's RAM filling up.

Since iOS do not have any RAM management options built within the system, something needs to be done. Usually, the basic solution is to power off your iPhone and restart the device.
