Is it safe to clear my cache on Android? Will that delete my files?
I need to clear space on my android device
there is a button of "clear data" in the "application infos" on the device
it will clear for me around 1.50 GB

the clear catch button is different one and that one I already use
I'm asking abt "clear data" one
my other concern that it might make me loss my log in data on that device. If so it will be difficult to log in again since I already have the account on three other devices.
I hope my concern is clear
The "Clear Data" button in the Application Info section of your Android device will only clear data and files that are stored locally on your device for the selected application. It will not delete any files on your Dropbox account or in any other cloud storage service.
When you use the "Clear Data" option, it will delete all data associated with the selected application, including your login credentials, app settings, cache files, and any user-generated data. It will not affect any files stored on external storage or cloud services like Dropbox.
Long story short, it is safe to clear cache, but you should think twice before deleting data on your Dropbox.
