• You can turn off Safe Mode on Android by simply restarting your phone.
  • You can also exit Safe Mode through the notification panel, but this doesn't work on all phones.
  • While in Safe Mode, you can troubleshoot apps by clearing their cache and data or uninstalling them.

Android phones are small portable computers, and like any computer, they can suffer glitches that prevent them from working properly. To resolve certain problems, Android offers Safe Mode, which lets you start the phone with just the most essential features and services. When in Safe Mode, most third-party apps are disabled. 

If you unintentionally enable Safe Mode, a bug causes it to happen automatically, or you're done troubleshooting after deliberately enabling Safe Mode, here is how to get out of Safe Mode and start your phone normally again.
