Hi, karineravanda.


It isn't possible to clear or delete your purchase history. The closest thing to that would be to hide purchases as outlined here:


"Hide apps on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

  1. Open the App Store app.
  2. Tap the account button , or your photo or initials, at the top of the screen.
  3. Tap Purchased. If you use Family Sharing, tap My Purchases.
  4. iPhone showing the Purchased option in the Account menu.
  5. Find the app that you want, then swipe left on it and tap Hide.
  6. iPhone showing what happens when you swipe left on an app in your purchases and the Hide button appears.
  7. Tap Done.

"
