Should I delete Safari cache?

Whether you use Chrome, Safari or other browsers on your iPhone, your cache builds up digital clutter over time.

Is removing cache OK?

Is it safe to delete Mac caches? It's good to be careful about deleting stuff from your Mac, but it's generally safe to remove cached data. You shouldn't run into any major issues if you delete cached files from system-level (/Library/Caches/) and user-level folders (~/Library/Caches/).

Should I clear all cache on Mac?
