My phone is too slow with Control+

We understand how frustrating it can be when search speeds feel slower than usual — especially if you rely on them daily. Control+ is designed to run efficiently while protecting your privacy and blocking potential threats, so significant slowdowns are uncommon.


If you’re noticing slower searches, it’s usually due to factors on your device or network, such as:

  • Device performance: Low memory or storage can affect speed.
  • Background processes: Other apps, browser extensions, or tabs running in the background may interfere.
  • Network or system changes: Recent updates or changes to your network settings can impact performance.


Top 5 Tips to Improve Search Speed

  1. Restart Your Device – Clears temporary memory and can improve performance.
  2. Close Background Apps and Tabs – Free up memory by closing unused apps or browser tabs.
  3. Check Your Internet Connection – Ensure a stable connection; try switching Wi-Fi or mobile data.
  4. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies – Removes stored data that can slow down browsing.
  5. Update Your Device and Apps – Keeps performance optimized with the latest fixes and improvements.


If the issue still persists help us identify the cause, please provide:

  1. The type of device you’re using (iPhone, Android, Windows, etc.)
  2. The browser or app you use when the slowdown happens
  3. Whether the slowdown occurs on all websites or only specific ones


With this information, we can guide you through a few easy steps to improve performance and ensure your phone run smoothly.
