Tips and common mistakes
Clearing cookies signs you out of most websites, so keep your passwords handy.
Start with cached files only if you want to stay signed in.
Do this when a site misbehaves or storage is low, not every day.
Questions
Will clearing cache delete my photos or apps?
No. It only removes temporary browser files and cookies, not your photos, apps or downloads.
Does this work the same on iPhone and Android?
The Chrome and Firefox menus are nearly the same, but Safari is cleared from the iPhone Settings app, not inside the browser.
Will I have to log in again?
Yes, on most sites. Clearing cookies removes saved logins, so you will sign in again.
