SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Cheetah Mobile Inc.
(NYSE: CMCM) announces today the release of an updated version of
the Clean Master app featuring a new Device Cooler function. The
new app version is now available on Google Play for new download or
as an update for the more than 200 million people worldwide who
have the Clean Master app.
Clean Master is the world's most downloaded Android cleaner that
helps users reclaim storage, boost memory and enhance speed while
protecting against viruses and vulnerabilities. With the app
update, Clean Master now includes a new cooling technology, adding
a Device Cooler function to its latest version. The Device Cooler
offers overheating protection with a patent-pending CPU checking
mechanism.
Clean Master Device Cooler uses a special CPU usage checking
strategy to periodically checks each running apps CPU consumption.
If an app is using above-normal amounts of CPU a user can click
"fix" and the Clean Master app will terminate CPU usage for the
abnormal app and release the occupied CPU back into the Android
system. This helps cool the device as high CPU usage is a main
cause for phone overheating. Additionally the new feature will show
real-time phone temperature and monitor for app developer updates
that can correct an apps CPU issue, alerting users when a new
version of an app is available.
The Device Cooler was developed by Cheetah Mobile after the
company discovered that when clearing memory from phones, many apps
were occupying unnecessary high amounts of the CPU. From years of
analysis, Clean Master has determined how much CPU consumption for
individual apps is "normal" and knows when an app is using too much
CPU power. Monitoring and adjusting CPU usage is important for
every device as high usage can cause some devices to overheat,
slows performance and drains the battery.
With the addition of the Device Cooler, Clean Master offers a
full suite of phone protecting features including:
- JUNK FILE CLEANING: Delete cache and
residual files to reclaim memory, boost speed and improve the
performance of your device and SD card.
- MEMORY BOOST: Boost your games and
apps, free up memory (RAM) and speed up your device. Our 1 Tap
Boost and Game Boost features make it easy to optimize directly
from your home screen.
- ANTIVIRUS: Scan the system,
pre-installed and user-installed apps to keep your device safe from
viruses, Trojans, vulnerabilities, adware and spyware. Keep your
privacy safe by scrubbing personal info from your device.
- APP MANAGER: Uninstall unwanted apps
or bloatware and back up important ones. Some rooted devices will
be able to move apps to the SD card as well as uninstall
pre-installed and system apps. Our own Picks section lets you find
useful apps that match your interests.
