How to clear cache of apps in iOS?

Liu Han asks:

I have noticed that various apps on iOS (iPhone), like FB, Twitter, etc, have a cache and it keeps increasing over time.

I have tried everything & searched everywhere for a way to clear those caches, but to no avail. Only option I’ve been able to find is by uninstalling & reinstalling the app. Any other way to clear the app cache, HELP?


Browser: Safari
System: iOS

Go to “Settings” and select “Safari”. Scroll down a little, and you’ll see the options for “Clear History” and “Clear Cookies and Data”.

This topic comes too late for me. I’ve deleted Facebook and Twitter apps; now I’m using browsers (Safari/Opera) to acces those services.
