Why Reset Your Browser?

Browsers today are smarter than ever before. They tend to store most information viz Browsing history, Cookies, Passwords, Auto-fill, etc. in the form of cache. Even though, this helps in loading webpages quicker but, this saved data takes up a lot of space. Over time, as a web browser keeps saving more information, the speedy functioning of your smartphone decreases. In such scenarios, you need to reset your browser. It will restore your browser to its default settings and will delete cache storage data. Moreover, as the data on Google Chrome is linked with your Google account, important information like Bookmarks is saved. Hence, it ensures that your workflow is not hindered in any way.
