Here\u2019s how you can clear the cache on your iPhone and iPad.<\/p>\n<p>The iPhone stores the cache for websites your visit to load them quickly whenever you open them again. A similar thing applies to apps that fetch fresh updates. But if the cache becomes too old, it stops matching the new website data, and the load times for web pages and apps slow. So clearing that cache frees up storage and delivers a smoother overall performance.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Clear_Browser_Cache_on_iPhone\"><\/span>How to Clear Browser Cache on iPhone<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Removing old temporary files from your browser is good for resetting the page load speeds back to normal and making room for newer cache files.
