Clear Safari History and Website Data

Clearing Safari history and website data on your iPhone removes history, cookies, and other browsing data.

1. Open the Settings app.
2. Scroll down and tap Safari.
3. Scroll down and tap Clear History and Website Data.
4. Tap Clear History and Data when the confirmation alert appears at the bottom of your iPhone’s display.

Why this works:

When your iPhone has saved a lot of data from the Safari app, your iPhone’s speed may slow down significantly. By clearing Safari history and other website data, you can increase your iPhone’s speed when it’s slow.

Pro tip:

• If you use another iPhone web browsing app (e.g. Google Chrome of Firefox), you can try clearing your browsing history in those apps as well.
