You can clear your cache, cookies, and browsing history from the Privacy and Security section of Shift Browser. Clearing your browsing data can resolve loading issues, improve performance, and help troubleshoot apps. You can clear data for your entire browser or for a single website.

Before you clear your browsing data

Clearing cookies signs you out of most websites and email accounts.

If you're only having trouble with one email account or app, you may not need to clear all of your browsing data. Instead, try:

• Removing and re-adding the affected email account.
• Adding a second instance of the app to see if a fresh sign-in resolves the issue.
