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.

Some iPhone and iPad users may have updated to iOS 14 or iPadOS 14 but then determined the latest software update is not compatible with their current workflow. This is typically due to app problems, app incompatibilities, or some other deal-breaking issue that makes using iOS 14 or iPadOS 14 impossible, at least until a fix to their problem is released. A possible remedy to these problematic situations is downgrading the device from iOS 14 back to iOS 13.7.

It’s important to note that the ability to downgrade iOS 14 to iOS 13.7 or iPadOS 14 to iPadOS 13.7 is only available for a limited time. This is because Apple eventually stops digitally signing the older iOS and iPadOS versions, and once that signing window has closed, the only option is to stay on iOS 14 or later.
