Sometimes restarting a device or uninstalling and reinstalling an app can be the solution to some problems, as strange as it may seem. And Android has a trick that allows leave an application as newbut without even having to delete it from the device’s internal memory.

Clear app data on Android
Performing a reinstallation of an application on Android requires having a stable Internet connection, time and patience, in which case if the application is large and the Internet connection is not particularly good, it may take more than time as we would like. With the addition that, If you do not have a WiFi connection, the download may experience some delays.
From the Android settings, it is possible to make any application remain in the same state as when it was first installed. For them, you just need to go to the applications section and search for those in which you want to carry out this process.
In each of them you will only have to enter the storage section to see information about the amount of memory occupied by these applications. This storage is separated between the space occupied by the application itself, the user data of that application and the space occupied by the application in the cache.
If you select the option to delete all storage of this app, all user data will be deleted, for practical purposes it will be as if this app was never installed on the device. You’ll have to log in again or do the initial setup, but at least you won’t have to download it again.
