Clear the Cloudflare cache of any zone you manage — in three taps, from your iPhone, iPad or Mac. FlarePurge is a native Apple app for developers, agencies and teams who run websites behind Cloudflare. Select a zone, tap the orange flame, confirm. Done. No more opening the Cloudflare dashboard just to clear a CSS file. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Purge the entire cache of a zone • Selective purge — up to 30 specific URLs or hostnames, automatic batching • Bulk purge — every zone in a Cloudflare account in one confirm • Multi-account — add as many Cloudflare accounts as you need • Favorites — pin the zones you touch every day • History — the last purges from this session NATIVE ON EVERY APPLE DEVICE • iPhone with a tuned iOS 17 design • iPad with sidebar + detail split view • Mac with true keyboard shortcuts (⌘F search, ⌘R reload, ⌘1–9 favorites), menu bar integration and full macOS UI PRIVACY IS THE CONTRACT • No analytics. No tracking. No third-party SDKs. • No backend of ours: traffic goes directly from your device to api.cloudflare.com. • TLS with certificate pinning (SPKI SHA-256 hashes of Cloudflare's certs). • API tokens stored in the system Keychain, device-only by default; optional iCloud Keychain sync. • Favorites sync via your own private CloudKit container — we have zero visibility.
