iOS devices don’t have an option to clear the cache data. Instead, they have an Offload App feature that clears all the cached data and reinstalls the app. Here’s how you can Offload the Facebook app.
1. Open the Settings app on your device.
2. Navigate to General >> iPhone Storage.
3. Here, you will see Facebook, tap on it.
4. Now, click on the Offload app option.
5. Confirm it by tapping on it again.
6. Finally, tap on the Reinstall app.
Check Your Internet
Another way to resolve the issue is to check whether you have a good internet connection or not. Here’s how you can check your internet speed.
1. Open a browser and visit an Internet Speed Test website (like fast.com, speedtest.net, speakeasy.net, etc).
2. Click on Go or Run or Start button if the speed test does not begin automatically.
3. Wait for a few seconds until the website finishes the speed test.
4. Once done, it will show the download and upload speeds.
5. If your internet speed is low, you will need to switch to a stable network to resolve the issue.
Update the App
Another way you can try to fix the problem is by updating the Facebook app as updates come with bug fixes and improvements over its previous version. Here’s how you can update the Facebook app on your phone.
1. Open the Google Play Store or App Store on your phone.
2. Search for Facebook in the search box.
3. Click on the Update button to download the latest version.
4. If there is no update available then you can also try re-installing the app.
Check if it’s down
If the above method does not work then there are chances that the Facebook servers are down and there are some technical issues. So, check whether Facebook is down or not. Here’s how you can check it.
1. Open a browser on your device and visit an outage detector website (e.g., Downdetector, IsTheServiceDown, etc.)
2. After opening it, search for Facebook in the search box.
3. Tap on Facebook from the list.
4. Check the spike of the graph. A huge spike on the graph means a lot of users are experiencing an error on Facebook and it’s most likely down.
