Clearing browsing history and cache is not just about privacy—it helps resolve technical issues that can impact the performance of CallHippo’s dialer. Here’s how:

Problem-Solving Use Cases for Clearing Chrome History:

Fix Login & Loading Issues
Problem: CallHippo fails to load or logs you out unexpectedly.
Solution: Clearing cache and cookies removes outdated session data, ensuring a smooth login.

Resolve Call Connectivity Problems
Problem: Calls drop frequently, experience delays, or do not connect.
Solution: Removing old cache files ensures that real-time data flows properly, reducing lag.

Improve Dialer Speed & Performance
Problem: The CallHippo dialer runs slow or lags when making/receiving calls.
Solution: Clearing browsing data frees up memory, allowing the system to run faster.

Fix UI Glitches & Button Click Issues
Problem: Certain buttons (e.g., "Call," "End Call") don’t respond or settings changes don’t apply.
Solution: Cached data can cause outdated scripts to run—deleting them forces Chrome to reload fresh UI elements.

Eliminate Conflicts with Extensions
Problem: CallHippo doesn’t function properly due to browser extensions (like ad blockers or security add-ons).
Solution: Clearing cache ensures the dialer operates without conflicting scripts.

Ensure Accurate Call Logs & Analytics
Problem: Call history or analytics data doesn’t update correctly.
Solution: Cache clearing refreshes the logs, ensuring accurate tracking of calls and reports.
