Mar 07, 2014 10:20 AM EST

Android is a simple and convenient operating system for the user. Clearing default Android apps is an easy process. Clearing the default app can be completed simply by resetting. Typically the resetting of the app will fix many problems. Clearing default apps can also be completed when the app is linked to a social network.

When the link is opened using Google’s Chrome Browser or even any type of application, there may be common issues which may occur. When this happens, the Android user should always default the settings to the right application. This will ensure that the wrong application may not be initially chosen for default.

Many times a user may attempt to attach a file such as a photo using a social network application. If this happens on Facebook for example, the user will most likely receive many options. In this case, the user should clear their default applications if any app is causing issues. Android can be highly useful because settings can be easily fixed.

Resetting the application and clearing the application will allow the user to fix issues through these options. The issues would solve problems such as making sure the file is open and the right application is being used. “Launch by Default” is the setting which the user should locate, then by selecting and pressing the “Clear defaults” button the Android application should be resetted. The process is very simple for anyone to complete.

There are many default managers which can be downloaded for free for Android users via Google Play. Default App Manager is a simple yet very functional app to manage (set defaults, clear/reset defaults) default applications for different types of actions that Android does. Unlike other applications that allow you to manage defaults for only one-two types of categories, this app allows to you to manage for almost all the common actions. It eliminates all the hassles and troubles of remembering defaults set for various applications such as Audio, Video, E-mail, Doc Viewer, etc. It is very handy for active Android lovers who use a wide range of applications for any particular category and keep changing them from the default Android settings.
