Clear app's cache or data

Clearing the cache and data can free up phone memory, improve performance and fix some problems with apps and webpages.

  1. Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > See all # apps.
  2. Select the app.
  3. Do one of the following:

    • To free up space by removing temporary files, tap Storage & cache > Clear cache. Over time, the cache builds up again, so repeat this if a problem occurs.
    • If problems still occur, then delete all data saved in the app by tapping Storage & cache > Clear storage. Be careful – there's no way to undo this.
