As we enter the new year, it’s a time to reflect, declutter, and set fresh goals for 2025. One simple resolution you may not have thought of is giving your iPhone a fresh start. Take a moment to check how many browser tabs are open on your phone and take note of the apps running in your task manager. Clearing your browser cache regularly can help boost performance and free up space, making a big difference in keeping your phone running smoothly.
To clear the cache from Safari on your iPhone, open the Settings app, scroll down to Safari, and select Clear History and Website Data. Choose your preferred time frame and tap Clear History to confirm. This will delete Safari’s browsing history and cache, but your autofill information should still remain on your device. To clear the cache from Chrome, open the app, click the three-dot menu button, select Delete Browsing Data, set your time frame, decide what you want to delete, and tap Delete Browsing Data.
Clearing cache data can improve browsing performance by freeing up storage space on your device. It’s also important to regularly check your iPhone’s storage usage and optimize it by offloading unused apps. You can also use Private Browsing on Safari to browse without saving any history. Remember, taking small steps like clearing your cache can make a big difference in your phone’s performance and overall user experience.
