      I think going back these used to be separate but don't quote me on that.
      sometimes it would be nice to be able to clear the browsing without that meaning having to log into dozens mof sites again.

      anyone with me on this ?

          @3mel Here I don't even see an option to clear the cache.
          Opera for desktops also doesn't have such option, maybe due to how Chromium works.

            It can be done, it is under delete private data - which is why it also includes cookies.

              @sgunhouse Here I see 'Clean cookies and data'. Would data means cache? I thought it would be something like 'local storage' .

                Let me check ... though I suppose you can delete the cache through Android's settings. But no, it should probably be covered under the "browsing history" option. Keeping the cache would invalidate clearing the recent history since anyone with the right access could just examine the cache to determine where you'd visited.
