How to Clear your Browsing History and Cookies on iPhone?
Did you know that every time you browse the internet and visit a website, files will be stored on your iPhone? It’s not only your browsing history, which lists all the websites you’ve visited, but also temporary internet files and cookies.
Temporary internet files include images and web page elements that act as a cache and can enable websites to load faster the next time you visit. Cookies are small files that a website stores on your iPhone that contain data about your browser, or login data, which is often used for advertising purposes.
Temporary internet files and cookies can pile up over time, however, and they will slowly eat away at your iPhone's internal storage if you don’t manage them. So, we’re going to show you how to delete your browsing history and cookies on an iPhone. Below are a few guides that you can follow to clear your browsing history and cookies from Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and Opera.
