How do I clear my cache?
To speed up load times for websites you visit frequently, your browser will temporarily store (or 'cache') some of the data involved for later use. This means that it won't have to download the same data again. However, if the website changes, this can result in an outdated version of the page being loaded. In these cases, it helps to clear your cache. So how do you do it?

Tap History > Clear browsing data.
