User reviews

Clear Cache is praised for its simplicity, effectiveness, and customization options, making it popular among developers and regular users for quick cache management. However, multiple users express frustration over the paid subscription model, frequent login requirements, and slowed tab reload times after clearing. The interface also lacks clarity in terms of domain exclusions and multilingual support. Despite these drawbacks, the extension remains highly recommended due to its core functionality and developer support.

Pros

Simple and quick one-click cache clearing functionality saves time and improves workflow efficiency.
Highly appreciated by developers and testers for speeding up testing cycles and validating changes effectively.
Provides customizable options for clearing specific data types like cache, cookies, and history.
Works well cross-platform including on Android, and efficiently helps improve browser performance.
Developer is responsive and willing to accept feedback, maintaining a reliable and well-functioning extension.

Cons

Recent introduction of a paid subscription model with features locked behind paywall has upset many users.
Frequent login and email verification required to use subscription features is cumbersome and annoying.
User interface and documentation lacks clarity, especially regarding domain exclusions and language support (only English UI).
Automatic cache clearing on schedule or browser start is only available in paid version, which some users find unreasonable.
Extension has become slower to reload tabs after clearing cache in the newer versions, causing usability issues.
