How to Delete Safari Website Data on iPhone and iPad
Note that while this guide has been written in accordance with iOS 16, the process of clearing out Safari website data in older versions of iOS like iOS 15 and iOS 14 is the same. Hence, even if you are using an older iPhone model with the previous iterations of iOS, you can wipe out the website data.
Delete Specific Safari Website Data
What if you don’t want to clear all the saved website data and would rather find specific data and delete it? Well, deleting a particular website’s data saved in Safari is hassle-free.
To do so, tap on Edit at the top right corner of the screen. Tap on the red button to the left of the data and hit the Delete button.
Delete Entire Safari Website Data at Once
And if you wish to get rid of entire website data at once, tap on Remove All Website Data at the bottom of the screen. Next, a popup will show up on the screen saying something like, “This will clear data that could be used for tracking, but is also used by websites to preserve login information and to speed up browsing.” Bear in mind that it will clean up all the login information and you will need to input it again. Make sure to tap on Remove Now in the popup menu to confirm the deletion of all the saved website data.
Delete Entire Safari Website Data Along With All History
Just in case you want to wipe out not just the entire website data but also all cookies and history, there is a pretty straightforward way to get it done as well.
