While Android does provide a recent apps screen that shows your available RAM, there is no way to check which apps are using the most memory.

If you are using an older version of Android, you need to utilize third-party apps to view apps’ RAM consumption. However, if you are using Android 10, you can view an app’s RAM usage without installing any third-party app.

Hence, in this article, we will share a step-by-step guide on how to check RAM usage on Android 10 or above. Let’s check out. We will also tell you how to check RAM usage on Samsung devices. Let’s check out.

2. On the Settings app, scroll down and tap on the About Phone section as shown below.
