How to Clear Cache on Android Phone or Tablet Easily?

When you run an Android app, it generates some files in memory to access them fast later on. These are called Cache files, and takes some storage space in your internal memory. They are kind of duplicate files which you don’t need. Clearing them up gives a bit of boost to your Android device’s performance. It was hard on older Android version for every app, now we can clear all cache on Android KitKat+ running devices with one click.

How to clear cache easily on Android 4.4+?
