Removed: Cache Source

Removed in version 9.1.1 as the underlying caching issue had been resolved in subsequent updates to iOS.

Supported in: Basic, Plus & Enterprise versions

Kiosk Pro uses web caching to temporarily store certain files and pages to increase the speed of page loading and to reduce bandwidth usage. To apply any changes to this setting, you must exit the app to the device's Home screen and relaunch it.

This setting is only applied in Plus and Enterprise when the app's Browser Engine setting is set to UIWebView.

Default Value
  • Native UIWebView Cache
Other Possible Values
  • Kiosk Pro Cache
  • Never Cache (may result in slower performance)

Due to the inability to completely clear the native browser cache in iOS 7 and 8, we implemented a custom caching system for Kiosk Pro, which requires that we load requests through a custom HTTP protocol. This means that Kiosk Pro Cache is incompatible with certain sites. If you are using Kiosk Pro Cache and experience problems, we recommend switching to the native caching. 

In iOS 9, the problem clearing the cache appears to be fixed and we have returned the default for this setting to native caching.  

Never Cache allows you to avoid caching altogether. As this option loads every asset directly from its source every time it is used, it may result in extended page loading times and other performance delays.
