It seems that you have to turn off your smartphone every day. The preferred time for this is of course the night, but do you do it?
“Turn off your smartphone for 5 minutes every night,” advises Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. More specifically, the idea is to restart your phone every day, without setting a specific time during the day or duration, which security experts – including the NSA – approve.
This will close all processes started on your smartphone, especially those that might be started by a malicious application. Admittedly, this is not a miracle solution, but this technique reduces the risk of your data being hacked by evil spirits.
Do you turn off your smartphone at night?
In any case, restarting never hurts these devices because we’ve made a habit of never turning them off again. So why not take the opportunity and turn off the phones all night? Something you can use to unwind a bit, which isn’t a bad thing either.
There are, of course, several schools on the subject. The most radical method is of course to switch off the smartphone completely at night, but others prefer to switch to airplane mode or night mode (do not disturb). And you, what do you do with your smartphone at night? This is the topic of our poll of the week, which you can answer below!
