Q&A for How to Clear History on an iPhone

This may be because you are using the Facebook app and that Safari does not interact with the app's searching system.

Tap the home button 2 times to open the menu, then swipe up on any open app or game to close it out.

Go to the home page and pull your finger down from the top of the screen to the bottom. A notification bar will pop up that shows all of your notifications. Tap the "X" at the top right and then press "Clear." Do that to all of the notifications you want to clear.

Go to your phone application and press "Recents." At the top, there is an option to see "All" calls or just the "Missed" calls. (Going to "All" will also include missed calls.)

Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch places a button that floats around on the home screen. This "virtual" button can now be used instead of the mechanical home button for every function except turning on the phone - which is accomplished by plugging it into a charger.

Go to your home screen and press down on your app until it starts to shake. An X will appear in the in corner, which you can then click on to uninstall the app.

Go to "Phone," then "Recent." Press "Edit" at the top. Then press the red circle next to the number you would like to erase, or press "Clear" to erase all recent calls.

Tap the "Settings" icon on the iPhone home screen. In the Settings menu, select the "Safari" tab. Look for the options that read "Clear History" and "Clear Cookies and Data." If you want to remove only your recent searches, tap on the "Clear History" button.

Go to History, hold on the items you want to erase and wait until options pop up. Choose to delete. You can use private browsing next time you do not want your history to show up on your iPhone.

You will need to transfer the data to your new iPhone, probably using an iCloud backup. Once you've done that, you can wipe the original device from the Settings.

When you open Firefox, press Crl+H, and a history tab will pop up. Right click on the search or set of searches you want to delete, and click "delete."

Yes, a factory reset means that all data stored on your device will be completely erased. So if you want to keep some data I wouldn't advise doing this.

Click on AppStore, then click "update" in the bottom right corner. This will bring up a list of apps that need to be updated. Click on the update button for each app you want to update.

Slide your finger up from the bottom of the screen and swipe all the apps up. Get in the habit of doing that if your are having battery/connection issues. All those apps are running in the background using up your iPhones RAM and other muscle just to keep them on standby. They refresh and update often so it drains battery and can make you have a weak signal.

If you have pressed "set up as new iPhone" then no, but if you have backed up your iPhone on iCloud or iTunes, you can try backing it up again and seeing if it restored the deleted material,

On your home screen, press down on the icons until they start wiggling. Click on the "X" button, and press the "Delete" button when the popup window appears. If you do not see the "X" button, it means someone has disabled "Deleting Apps" via the "Restrictions" tab in Settings, or your school has installed a "profile" that prevents you from doing so.

Yes. Unless you made a backup. You can restore from a backup by erasing data and click restore from iTunes or iCloud backup.

The only way you can delete the history of past screens is by erasing all content from the device. Restoring from a backup brings back the past screen's history.

Go to wherever you view Google. Once you see the regular Google search bar, click or tap on it so you can type in it. You should see all of your recent searches below the search bar and they have a little ”x” on the right side. If you are using an account that is managed by a school or something, you might not have the ”x”. If you do, just hit the ”x” and then you should be able to delete it.

You cannot view system files on an iPhone since smartphones are designed to be simple. The “other” files are often things like caches, logs, and voice memos. Neither of these things can be viewed.

Yes. You can delete it by pressing the 'Edit' button, and choosing what to delete. Press the 'Delete' button, to confirm that you want to delete it.

On your iPhone or iPad, select reset and select reset internet connections. This removes all saved internet connections to your device.
