Your Apple iPhone is surely a versatile device - handling all daily tasks while helping you to find all the answers online through the internet browsers present on it to even taking professional-looking images with its cameras. An iPhone has a lot to do. But that's what can make your iPhone slowdown too. Yes, we know that you may be worried about your iPhone being hacked, but the probability of that happening is low, and instead, the reason may well be the humble cache files building up in it. You see, whatever you search in Chrome, Safari, Mozilla Firefox or other Internet browsers, your cache builds up over a period of time. And clearing the cache on your iPhone helps to give a fresh start to your browser, which can speed things up fantastically fast. Whether your iPhone running on iOS 15 or the public beta of iOS 16, you can try to get rid of these piled-up cache files to make your iPhone healthy. Here's how to do it for Chrome, Safari and Mozilla Firefox browsers on your iPhone.
