Does it seem like your iPhone or iPad’s battery performance has worsened after updating to iOS 14 or iPadOS 14?
If you have recently updated to the latest iOS or iPadOS version and you’re having battery related issues, you’re not alone, and it’s not uncommon to run into these situations when new system software updates are made available.
Some iPhone and iPad models have more RAM available than others, and fortunately iOS and iPadOS manages RAM exceptionally well, so even if you have a device with less RAM than a higher-end model or some Android phones, you shouldn’t find any issues with memory management in that regard.
Regardless, if you’re using an ageing iPhone that packs lower RAM in comparison to today’s standards, you’ll notice that your smartphone isn’t as snappy especially when you have a lot of applications open in the background. This is exactly why you might want to flush your RAM memory every now and then. There aren’t any RAM management apps for iOS and iPadOS (unlike Android), so you’ll have to do it manually using this neat trick.
Interested in learning how this works, so you can try it out for yourself on your iOS device? Well, you’ve come to the right place then. In this article, we’ll be discussing exactly how you can clear RAM memory on your iPhone.

This can potentially save a lot of storage space, considering how large video files are, particularly when they’re captured as 1080p and 4K video. Interestingly, the videos that you record or download are both mixed along with the rest of your photos in the Photos app. Fortunately, it’s fairly easily to filter videos out of the photos list, as the app also displays content by media type.
