Avira Android Optimizer 1.1
One neat app is Avira Android Optimizer, which is quite small and does all sort of things for your phone. It sports a really intuitive and stylish interface with plenty of features at hand.
Sleek interface with many features
The app doesn't come with a tutorial or any kind of instructions to get you started, but you wouldn't really need them since it sports a really intuitive interface. It opens with the home screen featuring an icon that displays your used memory and one that shows you how much storage is used on your phone.
You can access all other sections from below, as they're featured in a list making them easily available. A side menu is filled with animation and other features that you can use. There's also the option of sharing the app with friends on various social networks like Facebook, Twitter or Google+.
Clean the phone's memory and remove junk files
The app makes it easy to clean your device's memory, it doesn't take a lot of time to scan your phone and kill applications that are running in the background and taking up system resources. Still, some applications restart immediately after they were killed and there's nothing that Avira can do about it.
You can also use the app to clean junk, the app quickly scans your device to identify system cache files, unused apks and large files that you may want to delete in order to save memory.
Clean private data stored by apps
Avira Android Optimizer can also be used to manage applications on your phone, you can select multiple ones to uninstall at once. It also comes with a feature that lets you clean private data stored by apps, you can delete browser history as the app tells you how many sites you've visited and you can also delete call logs.
In addition, clipboard data can be removed and you can manually clean cache and data stored by various applications. The side menu comes with the option of using the one-tap speedup feature, that cleans and boosts your device with one tap. Still, a floating widget would have also been useful for the same feature. The app also tells you the total memory and storage that you've cleaned since you started using the app.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
The interface is really sleek and has plenty of features at hand, aside from the fact that it makes good use of animation. |
Function8
It works just fine having plenty of features to choose from, but it could really use a floating widget and the option to whitelist apps. |
Security8
It needs access to areas of your phone that it doesn't really use like your list of contacts, but it shouldn't really pose any privacy issues. |
Battery7
Consumption is normal so you don't really have to worry about the app draining your resources. |
Price10
It's completely free of charge, no ads or in-app purchases whatsoever. |
Compatibility8
The app should work on devices running Android version 2.3 or later, making it accessible to many users. |
It's a nice app but it lacks some basic features like a floating widget and the option to whitelist apps.
