There is quite a lot of data on your iPhone that is scattered throughout the system and is very difficult to find. This is why you need an iPhone cleaner, since it can automatically search for unnecessary data throughout the entire system and delete it. If you download CleanUp, you can also get rid of duplicate files. Similar images, most often unsuccessful takes, can be cleared in just a couple of taps.
Clearing your cache in Google Chrome on the iPhone can be done swiftly, thanks to the user-friendly process provided by Google. To ensure your browser runs smoothly, follow these steps:
When you browse the internet on your iPhone, Safari compiles a significant amount of data and stores it on your device. This includes details such as cookies, images, and your browsing history. While some information, like bookmarks, is used consistently, a lot of this data consists of temporary files known as cache. Having cache data on your phone can be beneficial for future visits to websites since it retains aspects like your recent searches and helps save mobile data.
However, cache data is meant to have a short life span — unfortunately, it often goes uncleared, leading to unnecessary clutter and excess storage use on your device.
Follow these steps to clear your iPhone’s cache:
If you’re curious about just how much storage is being used by these temporary files, go to `Advanced` and check `Website Data`. To give you an idea of how quickly this adds up, I visited a single website and read one article about gift giving, which resulted in over thirty different entries, consuming 7.8 MB of storage. This is evidence of the amount of residual files your iPhone cache accumulates with regular internet usage.

First, fire up your iPhone and head over to:
Offload App: this option removes the app but keeps its documents and data intact. It’s perfect for apps that you rarely use but still wish to retain their data. A good example? A corporate app for submitting expense reports quarterly. Offload it to keep the data, then simply re-download the app when it’s time to use it.
Numerous social networking platforms provide tools that enable individuals to take control of their data within the application itself. Take Facebook as an example—you have the ability to purge stored app data with just a few taps to optimize storage space.
