How to Turn On Safe Mode on Android Phone

Safe mode is a feature that allows you to troubleshoot your Android phone by disabling all the third-party apps and services that may cause problems or conflicts on your phone. Turning on safe mode can help you identify and fix issues such as app crashes, freezes, battery drain, or even malware infection.

When your phone is in safe mode, you can only use the basic functions and the apps that came with your phone when you bought it newly, such as phone, messages, contacts, or settings. If your phone works fine in safe mode, it means that the problem is caused by one or more of the third-party apps that you have installed. You can then uninstall or update the problematic apps to solve the issue. If your phone still has problems in safe mode, it means that the problem is caused by the phone itself, and you may need to reset or repair your phone.

There are different ways to turn on safe mode on your Android phone, depending on the model and brand of your phone. However, the most common methods are using the power button or the volume buttons. Here are the steps to turn on safe mode on your Android phone using these methods:
