The settings menu for the Safari browser on your iPhone includes a number of options that let you customize the way Safari behaves when you visit websites.
One element of Web browsing, whether it’s on your iPhone or your computer, involves cookies. Many websites use cookies for a variety of reasons. Some of these reasons include things like keeping you signed into an account, or remembering which items you have put in your shopping cart.
Other reasons can involve things like tracking your usage for analytics purposes, or storing information to display more customized advertising.
If you are having trouble browsing in Safari on your iPhone and think it may be due to cookies, or if you simply want to disable cookies entirely so that you can browse without them, then enabling the “Block All Cookies” option in Safari on your iPhone will let you do that. Our guide below will show you how.

Step 3: Tap the button to the right of Block All Cookies.
Step 4: Touch the Block All button to confirm that you wish to block cookies and delete existing cookies and website data.
