Description
Disk Defragmenter for Android. Increase your phone's performance and speed by defragmenting its disk. No root is required!
Defragmentation is the process which increases file access speeds by rearranging files on the disk so that they occupy contiguous storage locations. The speed at which your phone can access files and store new ones will increase up to 50% after you run this simple app!
Boost your phone's speeds up to 50%!

If you do use it, we get a few cents and it will help us a lot to keep developing more apps. If you don’t, you can delete it and no harm is done (our app remains the same, no need to uninstall it!). Thank you. Also, this app creates notfication ads.

Technologies used by Disk Defragmenter PRO
Disk Defragmenter PRO is requesting 28 permissions and is using 11 libraries.
Show details
Trust & Safety: The app requests a broad permissions set (Internet, network state, location, storage, read phone state, etc.) and integrates with multiple ad networks (RevMob, Chartboost, Millennial, Mopub, AppLovin, LeadBolt, AirPush, PushAds). While the long description clarifies it is a prank and not a real defragmenter, the combination of location/history access and heavy ad-network usage warrants cautious review. Users should scrutinize permissions, consider disabling personalized ads if available, and uninstall if uncomfortable.
