Conclusion

Although any debris left behind on your phone when you uninstall an app from there doesn't harm the device and as an orphan file neither does it perform any action whatsoever, a collection of many such objects may reduce the phone's performance in the long run.

Since Android phones check the internal and external storages regularly, the storage media populated with unwanted and orphan files may slow down the scanning process, which further results in decreased navigation speed of the phone.

Using a smart program like Dr.Fone - Phone Manager (Android) ensures that your phone always remains clean and free from unwanted objects, thus keeping its performance intact even after installing and uninstalling apps several times.
