Abstract

This application relates to the technical field of network communications, and discloses a method and an apparatus for removing redundant information of a terminal. The method includes the steps of: calculating an estimated redundancy value of at least one type of redundant information in a terminal; determining that a redundancy value of a type of redundant information reaches a threshold of the type of redundancy value; prompting a user to remove redundant information; and according to confirmation from the user, removing the type of redundant information or all redundant information. The apparatus includes a first calculating unit, a determining unit, a prompting unit and a cleanup unit. According to the method and the apparatus of this application, an estimated redundancy value of redundant information of a terminal can be calculated actively by analyzing historical redundant data information of a user, and the user is prompted to process redundant information that reaches a threshold without the need for scanning, thereby saving system resources, improving system performance and also saving user time.
