Over time, apps can accumulate temporary files known as cache, which may affect performance or take up unnecessary storage space on your device. Clearing the cache can help resolve issues and free up storage without deleting your personal data. Below are step-by-step instructions for clearing app cache on both iOS and Android devices.

On iOS
