Game Booster is an app that helps users enjoy their games by increasing device performance as they play, which thanks to its features, offers an improved gaming experience for everyone.

Game Booster provides useful tools that help you enjoy games smoothly:

  • Optimises the game to balance battery usage, performance, and temperature by learning the user's game play patterns.

  • Provides a variety of locking functions to let you immerse yourself in the game.

The Game Booster app starts running automatically when you play a game.
