What is Safe Mode?
If you are a computer user, you already know that when a problem occurs, the computer automatically runs in Safe Mode. In Safe Mode, software-related issues are quickly resolved.
Similarly, Android devices also offer the same benefits in Safe Mode. Especially for gaming, Safe Mode is the safest option.
Normally, when we turn on our phones, all installed apps along with system apps open. However, when you boot your phone in Safe Mode, only the system files will run.
Safe Mode is a safe and straightforward process. There’s nothing to worry about. Once you understand it, you’ll never fear using Safe Mode again.
How to Enter Safe Mode?
On some phones, holding the Power Button for a few seconds will show options like POWER OFF, REBOOT, SAFE MODE. Clicking on Safe Mode will boot your phone into Safe Mode.
However, some phones, like newer Samsung models, don’t have this option. In such cases, you’ll need to follow a different method to enter Safe Mode.
Also, if a phone manufacturer doesn’t include the Safe Mode option, you won’t be able to enter Safe Mode.
How to Exit Safe Mode?
To exit Safe Mode, simply restart your phone. If that doesn’t work, turn off your phone, remove the battery for a few seconds, and then reinsert it. Turn on your phone, and it will boot in Normal Mode.
If this still doesn’t work, don’t worry. You can follow the same steps you used to enter Safe Mode to return to Normal Mode.
Why Use Safe Mode?
Usually, for minor phone issues, we visit customer care centers. For example:
- Touch screen not working,
- Phone running very slow,
- Apps crashing with messages like “unfortunately …..has closed” or “Force Close”.
To resolve these issues, we try many things. But sometimes, nothing works. That’s when we need to use Safe Mode.
Those who understand these issues try to solve them using Safe Mode, while others visit customer care centers.
Gaming in Safe Mode
If your phone has low RAM or processor power, gaming in Safe Mode is the best option. Since only system apps run in Safe Mode, no installed apps share RAM in the background.
Is Safe Mode Safe?
Safe Mode is entirely safe. However, when you return to Normal Mode, your phone will be in the same state as before.
