Clear App Cache / Data:

NOTE: In case one of your applications freezes, crashes, takes up too much storage inexplicably or just doesn’t work as intended, you can try fixing these problems by clearing the app’s cache / data.

WARNING! When you clear an app’s data, all personal information stored within the app will be deleted, including save files, settings, profiles, high scores, login and credit card information etc. To avoid losing personal data, clear ONLY the cache.

  1. Open “Settings”
  2. Go to the “General” tab and tap “Apps”
  3. Swipe to “All” and select the desired app
  4. Tap “Clear cache”
  5. If necessary, tap “Clear data” > “Yes” (read WARNING above)

Clear the Cache Partition:

NOTE: If your phone freezes, crashes, runs out of storage inexplicably or otherwise doesn’t work as intended, you can try fixing these issues by clearing the phone’s cache partition. This can yield results similar to a factory reset without losing any personal data on the phone’s internal memory.

  1. Launch “Settings”
  2. Access the “General” tab
  3. Tap “Storage” and wait for the phone to calculate data
  4. Tap “Cached data” > “Yes” to clear the cache

NOTE: If clearing the cache didn’t help, you can visit this thread for instructions on how to factory reset your device.

Reboot to Safe Mode and Remove an App:

NOTE: In case you have installed a third party application that causes issues and prevents you from uninstalling it, you should be able to remove the app from within Safe Mode. In this mode, all third party apps are disabled.

  1. Press and hold “Power” while viewing the home screen
  2. From the pop-up menu, press and hold “Power off”
  3. Tap “OK” at the “Safe Mode” prompt
  4. Wait for the phone to restart. Once done, a “Safe Mode” label should be visible in the lower-left area of the home screen
  5. To remove an application, first open “Settings”
  6. Go to the “General” tab and access “Apps”
  7. Make sure “All” is checked, and then select the desired application and tap “Uninstall” > “OK”
  8. To exit Safe Mode, reboot your device as you normally would, by pressing and holding “Power” and selecting “Power off and restart”
