Ah, that new-phone thrill! Yet just a few months later, you notice what was once the sportscar of phones is now crawling like an old clunker. Why does that happen, and how can you speed yours up? It’ll struggle when it has too many apps installed and running in the background, there’s hardly any storage space on it, it’s overworked and overheated, your operating system is out-of-date, and your battery deserves a happy retirement. It can also just be a matter of perception when you see an ad for a newer model and think of yours as something outdated and slow. But let’s see what you can do to speed your phone up!

Give it a restart 1:52
Update your phone 2:26
Free up some space 3:00
Sort your apps 3:39
Try lightweight versions of apps 4:17
Turn down the graphics 4:34
Clear your cache 4:59
Turn Bluetooth on only when you need it 5:39
Disable automatic background processes 5:50
Replace the battery 6:27
Restore to factory settings 7:00 #smartphone #gadgets #brightside SUMMARY:
– As simple as it sounds, sometimes just restarting your phone is all it needs to kick it into high gear. The reason for its snail’s pace is often a misbehaving app. – Keeping your Operating System up-to-date is good for your gadget because updates include the latest security patches and fixes for some common issues. – Your phone needs at least 10% of available storage free to be able to function correctly. You can see how much storage you have and which folders or apps are eating the most memory in your Settings. – Most phones come with bloatware – apps that are pre-installed and useless if we’re being honest. Sometimes you also install apps to get a discount at a store or just to try it out. – If you just can't say good riddance to some bulky apps, at least replace them with lighter versions. – An ambient display keeps you up-to-date with all the important notifications, and you don't even have to unlock your phone to see them. But… it eats up your battery life, and you know what it does to your phone speed already. – Your built-in browser keeps a cache of the web pages you visit with cookies, login information, and other data to help you navigate through them easier. But when the cache is too full, your phone slows down.
– Hey, is your Bluetooth on right now? Is it connected to anything? If not, then turn it off. It’s a real drag for your phone!
– The older your phone's battery gets, the more likely it is to shut down unexpectedly, even when it was charged well enough.
– Resetting your phone deletes all the apps and data you’ve had on it, so make sure you back it up on cloud storage or a computer before you wipe it clean. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

What If There Was No Gravity for 1 Minute
Remember that unsatisfactory feeling as a kid when you’d try to jump in the air as high as possible, and something brings you back to the ground? Well, that is Gravity. Like your mother, it's always there, it never changes, and you can’t break it’s rules. But that's for the better! If one day, the Earth's gravity disappeared, the consequences would be flat out disastrous. Gravity depends on the mass, which is, in turn, related to the matter. The more matter you have, the bigger the mass is. And the bigger the mass is, the stronger an object's gravitational pull is. You might have noticed that the gravity on our planet never changes, right? That's because the mass of the Earth always remains the same. But what if we imagined that one day, our planet would give off a terrifying “crack”, and gravity would just disappear? Other videos you might like:

No air to breathe 3:25
The Earth would break into pieces 4:01
What if gravity, on the contrary, became stronger? 4:32 💪 #gravity #space #brightside SUMMARY:
– Gravity is a force that draws atoms toward each other. Our planet is a big-big number of atoms, crammed together. That's why its gravitational pull is very real and very perceptible.
– The more matter you have, the bigger the mass is. And the bigger the mass is, the stronger an object's gravitational pull is. – Should huge chunks of the planet get ripped out from under your feet, the gravity would gradually change as well. – The most obvious outcome would be floating. I mean that you, the bed you've been sleeping on, your alarm clock, and your cup of unfinished tea would instantly rise into the air.
– If the gravity got switched off, anything unattached to the ground would simply fly off into space. People unlucky enough to be outside when the gravity disappears would be gone in the blink of an eye. – Those people inside buildings would be safer, but not for long. It's true that man-made structures are supposed to be firmly rooted to the ground. – Furthermore, the Earth would lose one of its best friends – the Moon. The only thing keeping the Moon from floating away and keeping our planet's natural satellite in orbit is the Earth's gravity. – Later, when life on Earth would cease to exist completely (what with no air and water), the lack of gravity would finally take its toll on the planet itself. – Without the main force holding things together, it would likely break into pieces and float off into space. – What if gravity, on the contrary, became stronger, and not only on the Earth, but everywhere in the Universe? Would it influence your life? – If the gravity changed even slightly, it’d completely disrupt the existing balance, and the Earth would move into a new orbit. As a result, our planet would start traveling about 10% closer to the Sun.
– Bridges wouldn't stand any chance; neither would large buildings, such as skyscrapers. Smaller houses might remain standing for some time, but they’d need to be reinforced. – Experiments in centrifuges show that people can easily tolerate two times the Earth's gravity for up to 22 hours with no harm to their health.
– Dormant volcanoes that’ve been sleeping for thousands of years would wake up and start changing the surface of the planet. – If gravity became twice as strong as it is now, the Earth would spiral into the sun at a dizzying rate.

What If Only One Baby Was Born in a Year
Three hundred and sixty thousand babies are born every day around the world. But what if there weren’t quite so many? What if, for one year, only a single baby was born? It’s not necessary to get into the biology of how this would happen. So let’s just pretend the stork took a year-long holiday and forgot to call a sub. The moment the first doctor makes an innocuous Facebook post about not having many new patients, the conspiracy train would get rolling. As scientists around the globe struggle to explain what just happened, people would come up with their own answers. Many might believe that it’s the beginning of the end of the world… Other videos you might like:

10 Superpowers You Had When You Were a Baby https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RurDrecMjP4& TIMESTAMPS:
There would be mass hysteria 1:02
What if you were the only baby born in a year? 3:15
What about the long-term effects? 4:28 #whatif #demography #brightside SUMMARY:
– No births for a year would be preceded by about nine months with no new pregnancies.
– Doctors who specialize in pregnancy are known as obstetricians, or OB-GYNs.
– They’d realize none of their colleagues are seeing any new pregnancies either, and it's only a matter of time until someone raises the alarm.
– Many might believe that it’s the beginning of the end of the world. That might sound farfetched, but mass panic has happened before over less real threats.
– Let’s say about ten months into the year without newborns, the world breathes a sigh of relief as the year’s first and only baby is born, happy and healthy. And for the fun of it, let's say that this baby is you.
– As the only baby of the year, you'd be a celebrity before you were even born. The whole world would know your name before you could even walk. – Life isn’t just going to suddenly go back to normal after something like this.
– For starters, companies that specialize in things for babies would definitely have a rough fiscal year. – While children can start eating solid food after about six to eight months, most won't be ready to ditch baby food entirely until they're around two. – Where things get complicated is when it comes to education and healthcare. – Maternity wards aren't going to see any use for about a year. – Every year for twelve years, schools around the world would be missing almost an entire grade's worth of students.
– This could lead to teachers being laid off, potentially disrupting the education system for years to come.
– On the plus side, there’ll be less competition for you in getting into the dream college of your choice. Helloooo Stanford! Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

What If You Were Invited to Have Tea with the Queen
So you wake up one morning, and an owl brings you … no, not an acceptance letter to Hogwarts, but an invitation to have afternoon tea with Her Majesty the Queen of England herself! Oh, my! Aren’t you a special one? Have you learned all the DOs and DON’Ts of royal tea protocol? “Afternoon tea” is served at around 4 o'clock and isn't just a snack but also a social affair. That means, get ready for plenty of etiquette rules! For example, just because there was no exact dress code on the invite doesn't mean you can dress the same way you do when you go to the grocery store on Sundays! Other videos you might like:

What you should wear 1:12
The right way to address the Queen 1:43
When at a Royal tea party, do as the Royals do! 2:34
Hold the cup correctly 3:28
And look into the cup! 4:40
The most exciting part – food! 5:37 #royalfamily #queen #brightside SUMMARY:
– Anyone who's about to meet the royal family is supposed to wear something right for the occasion: smart casual or business casual will be just fine. – When at a Royal tea party, do as the Royals do. So start with sugar, if you need any, then fill the cup up to about three-quarters using a strainer. It's placed over your cup for that reason. – Now that there’s milk and sugar in your tea, you want to stir it. Don’t make a little whirlpool in the cup by stirring the tea in circular motions! You need to stir it back and forth from 12 to 6 if you imagine it like the face of a clock.
– As much as you want to warm up your hands, don't wrap them around your tea! The proper way to do it is to hold the loop of the handle with your index finger and thumb. – British royals don't really stick their pinkies up to show how posh they are. I even heard extending it is a pretty rude gesture.
– This saucer looks fantastic, it's the most exquisite pottery and everything, but please leave it on the table. It's only okay to hold it together with the cup when there's no table in front of you, like when you’re standing.
– When the cup is on the table, it should always point at the 3 on your imaginary clock. If you're left-handed, you can relocate it to 9 o'clock for convenience. – When drinking, focus on the teacup! Don't look over it around the room. – Don’t slurp or gulp it down! As you lift your cup, take just one sip, then carefully put it back. And stop blowing on it!
– And now comes the most exciting part – food! It’s served on a pyramid of three tiers. – The sandwiches you’ll see at a royal tea party will be bite-sized and without crusts. Her Majesty’s personal favorites are with fillings of cucumber, smoked salmon, egg and mayonnaise, or ham and mustard. – So, the top of the pyramid is where you’ll find the sweets. Crispy cookies, strawberry tarts, honey and cream sponge, and many other kinds of cakes all gorgeous and fancy as can be. – It looks like the party is coming to an end. To wrap it up, take the napkin off your lap and leave it to the left of your cup and saucer. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

What If Just One Planet Disappeared from the Solar System
Have you ever thought about what will happen to your solar system’s “perfect harmony” if it loses a planet? For example, the closest planet to the Sun is Mercury, right? Oh, it’s so small! So with Mercury gone, how’s Earth looking? Hmm, no changes in the solar system. It’s all about gravity. Every object that has some mass attracts other objects because of its gravitational force. The larger the mass, the greater the force it has. Mercury is the smallest planet in the solar system, so it’s not too massive in space terms. But what about other planets? Other videos you might like:

10 Facts About Our Planet You Didn't Learn In School https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRXdjc5yxVs& TIMESTAMPS:
Mercury 0:29
Venus 1:15
Mars 2:04
Jupiter 2:58
Saturn 4:16
Uranus 5:02
Neptune 5:46
The Moon 6:43 #space #planets #brightside SUMMARY:
– Mercury is the smallest planet in the solar system, so it’s not too massive in space terms. – At 50 million miles away, Mercury is no doubt far from Earth, so the gravitational force between the two of them isn’t that strong. – Venus is the hottest planet in yourc solar system. One day here is almost 117 Earth days.
– There’s a massive asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Asteroids, as you know, aren’t Earth’s best friends. – Jupiter usually holds them together with its strong gravity, but from time to time, they break free and start moving toward the Sun.
– Mars also has gravity to boast and acts somewhat like a slingshot that speeds up asteroids in the direction of Earth.
– Jupiter weighs 3 times more than all its neighboring planets combined! – With its massive gravitational force, Jupiter has protected Earth from asteroids and other space debris over the past 4½ billion years! – The sun’s gravitational pull is sending all that stuff toward the inner planets, and that includes Earth! There will also be some small changes in the orbits of other planets, but that would be some thousands of years later. – It’s time for Saturn. You can’t mistake it for any other planet thanks to those gorgeous rings! Scientists say they’ll disappear one day as Saturn’s immense gravity pulls them down in an icy rain. – Uranus is massive as well, the 3rd largest planet in the solar system. – Without Neptune’s gravitational pull keeping things stable, orbits are crossing, and celestial bodies are crashing into each other!
– What about the Moon, though? Oh, my! What just happened to the Earth’s axis? It’s so tilted, even more than it was before! The weather down there has gone wild too – there are no more seasons at all, and new ice ages are on their way!
– The day now lasts only 6 to 12 hours because there’s no more pull of the moon to slow down the Earth’s rotation. There are no more lunar or solar eclipses to watch. – It looks like out of all the planets in your sun’s complex system, only Jupiter’s disappearance would be a major problem for Earth. So I guess it’s true what they say: the solar system really is a delicate and harmonious balance!

What Would Happen If You Swallowed a Scorpion
You’ve been lost in the desert for days, and you know that you desperately need something to eat. You drag yourself to the weak shade of a straggly tree and out from under a rock crawls…a scorpion. Yum! Wait, you can’t believe you’re considering it… but how bad could it be? Scorpions are packed full of protein—just what you need! How hard can they pinch? And how venomous are these things? The least of your worries are the claws or pincers. Scorpions can pinch, but you should be more worried about the poisonous stinger. A sting is way more painful—and dangerous—than a pinch.

If you do get stung, what should you do? 6:44
Watch out for the bark scorpion! 7:27 #scorpion #whatif #brightside SUMMARY:
– There are over 1,500 species of scorpions, but you’re in the desert, so you’re probably dealing with the Common Desert Scorpion.
– It’s a brownish-yellow color, and it might have brown hairs on it. This scorpion uses those hairs to pick up vibrations from the air and ground to find food.
– To catch one, though, you’re going to have to wait until dark. Why?? Most scorpions glow under a UV light! Luckily, you have one.
– Next, you need to set a trap. Around the perimeter of the rock, or near the holes, dig a hole large enough to set a cup in, and pack the sand tight around the opening.
– It’s best to remove the stinger and venom gland; if you don’t, the scorpion would try to sting you all the way down. – But if this really was a survival situation, scorpions ARE a good option. The legs are surprisingly meaty and, like lobster, the best meat is in the tail and pincers!
– After you catch your scorpion, you’re somehow able to start a fire, and decide to cook it. This is much safer.
– Once the scorpion has an even brown color, it’s ready to eat! It should have a nice crunchy texture. – In some countries, scorpion is actually a versatile delicacy! Cooked scorpions are served as street food, and make a nice soup!
– Scorpions aren’t just found in remote deserts; they’re common in hot, dry places like Arizona or parts of Australia, and they can wander into your home! – If you’re stung, look for symptoms of an allergic reaction, like a rash or hives. You’ll probably have some swelling and itchiness, so put some ice on it.
– A scorpion sting doesn’t usually cause a lot of problems for most people, unless you have a serious allergy to the venom. – If you live in the Southwest US—states like Arizona, Texas, and Nevada—watch out for the bark scorpion! They’re brown with a darker back, and up to 3 inches long. – If you think you’ve been stung by a bark scorpion, it’s best to just go to the emergency room.

What If Your Weight Was Just 2 Lbs (1 Kg)
Imagine that you weigh just 1 pound. You'd feel very light, but life would become much harder. Tapping “likes” on photos would take much more than just tapping. You’ve been scrolling Instagram feed, but it feels like you’ve run 6 miles on a treadmill. You leave the apartment and take the stairs because the elevator simply won't work if you weigh less than 30 pounds. The weather outside better be warm and without strong wind. Otherwise, it may blow you away. And you better turn off vibration on your phone. With your mass, it will be tantamount to a minor earthquake. Other videos you might like:

How much will you weigh on other planets? 7:07 #whatif #yourweight #brightside SUMMARY:
– On average, a person eats 3.3 pounds of food per day, and about 60 tons of food in a lifetime. With your wee weight, don't rush to fill the fridge, because all you need to stay full all day is a glass of milk and a couple of corn flakes.
– However, if you do fall, you won’t be hurt, because due to the small weight, the pulling force will act differently on you. – At music concerts, you can easily reach the stage, running over the heads of other spectators.
– To type something on a computer keyboard, you’ll have to slam it with your fist, and to play the piano, you’ll have to walk on the keys.
– Even a slight pressure of water from the shower will stamp you to the bottom of the tub.
– What if we become even lighter? Say, 1 oz? You can forget about the stairs and the elevator. Go out the window, because if you fall from a height of even 10,000 feet, you will land unharmed.
– Moreover, your weight is just a little more than that of… the soul. Indeed, according to research by Dr. MacDougall, the weight of the human soul is 0.7 oz.
– Any insect is dangerous for you. And the flap of the butterfly wing will be equivalent to the wind from a powerful fan.
– Now imagine that if every person on Earth weighed 1 oz, then the weight of all of the people would be 198 thousand tons! It's like 4 "Titanics" or 100 Statues of Liberty!
– The weight of the lightest person on Earth was recorded in the 19th century in Mexico. Lucia Zarate's weight was only 4.6 pounds.
– And the heaviest person also happened to be a resident of Mexico – Juan Pedro Franco with a weight of 1,300 pounds.
– Did you notice that it is much easier to slim down in summer than in winter? This happens because the human body specifically stores as much fat as possible in order to survive the cold.
– Not only the level of physical activity and the number of calories consumed can change the mass of our body. Stress does a great job too. – In addition, excess pounds may appear because of a lack of sleep. If you don’t get enough shut-eye, the body doesn't generate energy and stresses out. – The mass of our body, in fact, determines the force with which we are attracted to the Earth. The larger the mass, the stronger the attraction. – You’ll be the lightest on Pluto — there your weight will only be 9 pounds. – But there are places in our galaxy where gravity is millions of times greater than on our planet. These places are called neutron stars. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz
