What is CacheCleanerX?

CacheCleanerX is a free tweak that adds an option to clean app caches directly from the Home screen with a 3D Touch or Haptic Touch gesture when taping on an app icon.

Clearing cache files will free up space on your iPhone and can improve speed and performance by removing unnecessary app data. CacheCleanerX tweak supports the core features of being able to clear an app cache or reset that app to its factory state from the storage settings.

However, CacheCleanerX tweak let users access this feature also from 3D Touch like on the screenshot below. Once installed, a new preference pane is added to the Settings app where you can activate all options as you like. The tweak supports iOS 11 up to iOS 14.
