You&#8217;ll get a top menu.<\/p>\n<p>o Open a web browser. Open Internet Explorer and tap the Tools menu. Then, tap on Browsing History. You can then select Delete to clear your Facebook cache and cookies. Click the &#8220;Clear&#8221; button. You&#8217;ll see a list of files that need to be removed.

This helps streamline the user experience and remove any data pieces that may be corrupted. This method will not only increase the speed of the app, but will also improve your overall Facebook experience.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using an Android device, Facebook stores its cache data locally on the device.
