iphone tips - how to clear search history



I assumed that many people have the same problem as me, having a long list of search history and yet tapping "clear history" in the settings don't work. So i went to search for solutions, hope this tip helps. =)

Now, here's how to do it:
1. Go to Settings -> Safari
2. Change search engine (from Google to Yahoo or vice versa)
3. Tap the "Clear History", "Clear Cookies" and "Clear Cache"
4. Change the search engine to what it was originally
5. Launch Safari (there you go)

*If you do not want to lose site logins, this method works without clearing the cookies as well.
