[QUOTE="Ink, post: 899352, member: 3"] As far as I can tell CCleaner, Avast Cleanup* and AVG Cleaner apps are all identical. *The Pro version only removes 3rd-party in-app Ads, but may promote their own. From previous uses, these cleaning apps may delete the caches for Google Photos, rendering all previews unavailable (grey picture). No account required if you use Adguard DNS via the Private DNS of Android 9+. Works very well for Apps and Websites. It does not block malicious sites. [URL='https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/03/26/make-android-use-dns-server-choice/'][U]See how it works[/U][/URL]. To support the app developer, you may consider using your [URL='https://surveys.google.com/google-opinion-rewards/'][U]Google Opinion Rewards[/U][/URL]' credits (earn $ by answering surveys) to buy the Pro/Ad-Free versions. Over 5 years and 300+ surveys, it has amounted to £40 ($52) in free Play Store credits. The more locations you visit, the higher rate of surveys. Unused credits may have an expiration date. No purchase necessary. [/QUOTE]
