Android 9: Delete cookies - how to remove the data

When you open a web page in your browser, cookies are stored in most cases. These are local data that ensure that the web page can be loaded faster when you call it up later, and that you do not have to download all the data again. However, this data costs storage space.

How are the cookies deleted on Android 9?

You need to delete the cookies directly from the Chrome app.

1. Open the Chrome app by tapping the app icon.
2. Now go further to the "More" icon, which consists of the three small dots that are vertically stacked.
3. Now tap on "History" and then further on "Clear browser data".
4. You can now select a period or delete the cookies of the entire period. For this case, select "Total time".
5. Now you can select what you want to delete everything. If you only want to delete the cookies, check "Cookies and website content" and "Images and files in cache" here.
6. To finish, tap "Delete data".
7. Deleting the cookies will delete all data, such as session hashes. These are stored on the web server for your session. Sollten Sie einen Einkaufswagen oder eine andere bestimmte Sache auf einer Webseite erzeugt haben, müssen Sie diese wohl oder übel neu anlegen.
