Hi, can someone tell me Is there an app or something else which allows me to see Safari cache on my iPhone 4? Is there such a thing?
To be precise, I am interested in knowing, can we see history of entries which we made in Safari (if we didnt actually visit web pages).

What entries are you talking about if a webpage wasn't visited?
 
I was entering some very long address but accidentally didnt press "enter" and the entry disappeared. So now I am trying to figure out what was the address since I cant rememer It. Is there a way to retrieve that back?
 
Sorry to say but you're most likely out of luck here. You could try reentering the first few letters to see if it remembered it for auto-completion, but I doubt it would if you cancelled the input (and it really shouldn't).
 
I suppose that data is stored somewhere in ram, could that be helpful?

But it's gone. You will not get a data you were typing unless you had some kind of keylogger. On mac you would use command + Z but on mobile safari, web page address text field is not storing data after you failed with typing. It's cleared and no longer in RAM.
 
So there is no way to retrieve that data? Problem is that It was pretty long link and I wrote it down on some paper which also I cant find. I am wondering could some programs for recovering data could find something but in the other hand If it is not "written" in device there is no chance.
