Are you wondering how to clear cache/history on iPhone and iPad? Since iPhone or iPad contains a lot of personal data ranging from backups of confidential documents and certificates to login credentials for banks, emails, and online payment systems, you should really think about how to properly handle these data when you want to sell your used iPhone and iPad.

It is possible to delete iPhone/iPad cache or history, like safari browsing history and cache, search history, call history, chrome browsing history and message history among others. However, the options we have to delete such cache are often less than sufficient. With a few advanced recovery tools, those up to no good can quickly root and recover most of your personal data form your used iPhone/iPad, although you reset it to factory setting. It is therefore very important to find a better way to permanently clear history from your phone.

iPhone Data Cleaner is one of the available solutions if you are looking to clear iPhone history forever. It will completely erase your browsing history, clear search history, safari cache and any other stored data without any chance to recover.

iPhone Data Cleaner

iPhone Data Cleaner is simply the best within its category. It offers three different levels of data erasing that allows you to overwrite and clear any cache, making it impossible to recover by using any tool available in the market. Most data recovery applications work by rooting the device to recover data that was once stored in the memory. Overwriting the memory a couple of times makes it impossible for such tools to find any history. iPhone Data Cleaner does exactly this and deletes all history including;

• Text content and history – includes contacts, iMessages and test/SMS, call history, notes and reminders, calendar and safari bookmarks. The eraser can also delete documents like Excel, TXT, Word, PDF, PPT and ZIP libraries among others.
• Media content and history – includes all music, videos, and photos, podcast, iBook, TV shows, audiobooks, music videos, voice memos, and ringtones.
• App data and history – the eraser can clear the history of various third-party apps including WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, WeChat, Google Plus and YouTube among others. It can also clear safari history including saved passwords, cache, and all its saved data.
• Settings – removes general settings, security settings, carrier settings and privacy settings restoring your iPhone to its manufacturing state.
