It doesn't. No app can clear ram if your phone gets slow kill all apps and power cycle. Plus iOS manages ram itself.

The iPhone 4s was supposed to have great battery life, the update was suppose to fix that, but for many it didn't. If apple said the iPhone could swim would you believe that?
 
Seems you have been told this app clears RAM and believed it. Apparently you're much more naive than most iPhone owners.

Yeah, its not needed on an iPhone since they have plenty of ram. But iPod touches and first generation iPads can get really slow if you don't clear the ram.

Plenty of ram? Okay that is invalid. And to those saying its not needed....then why waste my time closing background apps. There should be something that doe it all at once to save time.


How often do you guys reset? And which one do you do? Hold home and sleep?

The easiest way is.....
Double click home button
Tap and hold an app
Click the red - on all of them :D

yeah!! if the guy posted a youtube video and said it works, then it must work!!!

If its on the internet, it must be TRUE!!!!!!!!
 
I use iPhone 4 and never have to clear RAM or reset... I don't believe apps in the app store are allowed to access RAM and things like that though.

Without ram they wouldn't run...

there is a memory "release"

Ah, I see it now. Interesting. I wonder how that works...

I emailed the guy and he said don't do it unles you are sure you dont need any apps open, it will terminate Some

So I checked out the app and there's no mention of it clearing RAM...or did I miss it? Please advise.

I emailed the guy and he said not to do it unless you didn't need your apps open. Therefore the
Memory being freed up is random access memory

Exactly, takes longer than I want it to
 
Who knew iPhone memory needed to randomly "release"...

Sort of like we do?

I wonder, if the memory has not "released" for a long time does it turn blue. :confused:

The whole iOS doesn't need to free up ram isn't 100% true. What is that feature called anyways. Do other phones do it now too

How do you know it isn't true? One of the main points of apples multitasking is it smartly manages system resources to make sure you don't run out.

You must be pretty gullible if you believe that.
 
Ah, I see it now. Interesting. I wonder how that works...

My guess (particularly since this app is available via the App Store) is that this app attempts to allocate a ton of RAM for itself. In such an event, iOS will begin clearing up RAM from other apps if needed. Then when this app is done it releases all of it's bullied memory. At least that makes the most sense from a development standpoint if you're going to adhere to the developer rules for App Store submission.
