When there's no history or website data to clear, the setting turns gray. The setting might also be gray if you have web content restrictions set up under Content & Privacy Restrictions in Screen Time.

After going Safari > Clear History > all history, when I return to a website, which requires a sign-in, I find I am still signed-in from the last session there.


When I check in Safari > Privacy > Manage Web Site Data, I find a mass of stuff from previous browsing sessions has not been cleared. After several attempts, this action will eventually clear all the old data. Something seriously wrong here!
