To clear history on Safari iOS 2, it involves opening the Safari app, accessing the History submenu, and using the Clear button to erase browsing history within a selected timeframe. Here are the detailed steps to clear Safari history on an iPhone running iOS (method applicable for iOS 2 and later versions):

  1. Open the Safari app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap the book-like icon near the bottom of the screen to open the History submenu.
  3. Tap the red "Clear" button.
  4. Choose the timeframe for which you want to clear the history — options usually include Last hour, Today, Today and yesterday, or All history.
  5. After selecting the timeframe, tap "Clear History" to confirm and erase the browsing data.

Alternatively, history can also be cleared from the iPhone's Settings app:

  • Tap that option and confirm the deletion by choosing the timeframe and tapping "Clear History."
