Further Information
If you do not want to close all of your tabs at once, you must do so individually.
To do so, open Safari, then tap the Tabs icon, followed by the small X in the corner of the tabs you want to close.
It is important to note that closing all of your tabs will not delete them from your history.
Go to Safari > Settings > Clear History and Browsing Data > To clear your Safari history, cache, and browser data, select Clear History and Data.
You can also use the Private Browsing Mode, which is accessed by pressing the Tabs button on the Safari browser and then selecting the Private option from the dropdown menu in the bottom-center of the screen.
Conclusion
You should close all of your tabs at once with Safari on the iPhone 14 on a regular basis, especially if you have dozens of open tabs.
All of those open tabs can slow down your phone and make it more difficult to find a tab that you want to use.
It can also be time-consuming to dismiss each tab individually, so knowing how to close all iPhone 14 tabs with the strategies described above can make this process much easier.
