A cache is a temporary storage designed to keep tiny bits of data to help your device or browser work faster. However, these bits of data can grow large to clog things up. Which is why you need to clear your iPhone’s cache at intervals. Think of it as some form of Spring cleaning. Every app you install and delete leaves some junk behind. Every website you visit, and download you make, contributes to this too. So, we are looking at two different caches here: the app cache, and the browser cache. When is a good time to clear any of the caches on your iPhone? I say, anytime you begin to notice a degradation in performance. If your phone begins to run slower, that might be an indication that the cache needs clearing. If your phone’s Safari browser becomes sluggish, you should consider clearing its cache as well. Usually, a restart of your device can resolve some of the sluggishness you experience on your smartphone, and it is recommended that you do that regularly. Once a week is a good cycle. In my experience, a phone reboot makes magic happen. But sometimes, even a reboot isn’t enough. At those times, you should consider clearing your iPhone’s caches. Below are the steps for clearing the respective caches.
