Hi, can anyone tell me if a cookie manager exists for the iPad.?

I usually clear all my history and cookies each time I've accessed the web but would like to keep some of them for sites I use regularly .

I don't know an app which does this but If you do clear after every time you are on the net you can just clear History and then go to Settings - Safari - Advanced - Website Data and you will see an Edit Tab top right which lets you delete the sites (Cookies) you want.

See if this does what you would like....

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. I've zoomed around the net a bit to get a few cookies added but when I look in advanced and web site data it's empty. I have safari set to just add cookies from sites I visit.

That's unusual, I've just done the same thing and the sites are now saved in Website Data, I also have my cookies set the same. Would you happen to have Private Browsing set to On?

Yes... Does this make a difference then?

Yes it does, you won't have cookies if Private Browsing is activated.

If you want to save some cookies leave this off and do it how I described above.....I think you may have to go to Safari and Bookmarks - History and clear your history here also if you want to wipe where you've been on the net.
