![]() Norton claims to "remove the clutter" from your Android device. While we didn't want to include near-identical apps on the list, and Norton's app hasn't been updated in a few years, we include it because it at least has a different look. Give Avast or AVG's offerings a look if you prefer a slight alternative to how CCleaner works.Īs mentioned above, most of the biggest Android cleaning apps come from one place: the same company owns Avast, AVG, Avira, CCleaner, and Norton. Note that Avast Cleanup and AVG Cleaner are not on this list because they are extremely similar to CCleaner-given that these apps are all owned by the same company, this isn't a surprise. ![]() It may be a bit light on features, but it does the job if all you need is a quick way to reclaim your phone's storage space. No root is necessary and it's free, although you can upgrade to the Pro subscription for a few extras. Lastly, the System Info page monitors your phone's resources (CPU, RAM, device details) so you can see what's going on at a quick glance. It also has an App Manager, which offers a simple interface that lets you pick multiple apps for uninstallation. The main function is the cleaning feature that can wipe cache data from apps, purge empty folders, and delete various histories. (Unfortunate to say but fakes are quite common on Amazon, and don't even think about buying software off eBay).Indeed, CCleaner on Android is a multifunctional app that does its best to analyze and clean up stray files taking up your precious space. You need to be careful to avoid scams like that, it's recommended to only download Android software/apps from the Google Play Store. They copy other names as well as CCleaner, see this article: 'CC Cleaner' (as shown in your screenshot) is the name of a fake disguised to look like the real CCleaner name and trip up the unwary.Īvoid 'CC Cleaner' (with 3 'Cs'), the company responsible is know for copying legitimate product names to sell inferior software, and then scam you as well. The name of the official product is CCleaner. More importantly though - What you then downloaded is a known fake. You need to get the latest CCleaner for Android version from the Google Play Store.Īnd yes, the genuine CCleaner does need all those permissions to be able to clean Android properly. Your Samsung probably has an older Android. The first thing to note is that the genuine CCleaner for Android v1.11.42 was from 2015 and so is well out of date. Yes, it was free, but I like to have some say on what I put in my devices. I removed it, as soon as I finished installing it. I tried CCleaner from Google Play Store, but hey asked for so many permisions, and didn't leave me any choices in deciding anything in the software. ![]() I tried to download a newer version Android Cleaner, Version 1.0.3 from Appstore, but I am told that this Cleaner cannot be installed in my device. I have the same version Cleaner in an older Samsung tablet, and it works fine. The same thing happens when I click App Manager, and Custom Analyses, and Customs Files and Folders in Settings. I just got a new tablet. I downloaded CCleaner Version v1.11.42, from Amazon Appstore to it, but I cant get it to work. When I click "Analyze", I get a message that says "Ccleaner keeps Stopping", and 2 options to click: App Info, and Close app. Why doesn't Ccleaner work in my new tablet. ![]()
