Delete cookies

Choose scoped deletion for an exact identity. Legacy name-only deletion keeps its existing platform behavior. useWebKit defaults to false and selects the iOS WebKit store where accepted.

A deletion identifier requires name and an absolute path. Omit domain only for host-only deletion; an explicit domain selects that scope. Invalid selectors fail with PARSE_ERROR; incompatible domains fail with DOMAIN_MISMATCH before mutation.

clearCookieSync

clearCookieSync(url: string, identifier: CookieIdentifier): void

Added in 1.3.0. Delete the exact identity from the default store. Returns void. On Apple, a missing identity is a no-op. Android submits an expiration write without acknowledgment or existence reporting.

clearCookie

clearCookie(url: string, identifier: CookieIdentifier, useWebKit?: boolean): Promise<void>

Added in 1.3.0. Delete the exact identity from the selected store. Android awaits write acceptance and rejects rejected writes. It cannot report whether the cookie existed. Use HTTPS for Secure cookies.

clearByNameSync

clearByNameSync(url: string, name: string): boolean

Legacy default-store removal by name. Apple removes its first matching result. Android attempts expiration at / with the URL host Domain attribute. The boolean does not establish exact-scope deletion.

clearByName

clearByName(url: string, name: string, useWebKit?: boolean): Promise<boolean>

Asynchronous legacy name-only removal. It accepts the iOS WebKit selection flag. For overlapping paths or domains, use clearCookie instead.

clearAll

clearAll(useWebKit?: boolean): Promise<boolean>

Clear the entire selected store, including unrelated domains. There is no URL argument. Apple returns true after completion; Android returns whether CookieManager removed any cookies. Use only when clearing the whole store is intended.
