Disable cache in IOS application with UIWebview

Question

I have an application IOS who load the same url but with different content every 5/10 seconds. On my website I count how often my url websie is call by my application. When I call my website in a browser (safari/chrome/fiefox...) My website count the good number of times. When I call my website with my Application. my website don't count the good number of times. it's lower.

I think that is on account of the cache. How to desable cache on a Uiwebview IOS application ? I have already in my code [[NSURLCache sharedURLCache] removeAllCachedResponses]; with my request but I think this is when I load in my UIwebview.

NSString *html = @"<head></head><body style='padding:0;margin:0;'><script src='http://url_with_content.com'></SCRIPT></body>";
NSString *script = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"%@", html];
[adView loadHTMLString:script baseURL:nil];

Try this:

// Clear all Cookies and cache
[[NSURLCache sharedURLCache] removeAllCachedResponses];
NSHTTPCookie *cookie;
NSHTTPCookieStorage *storage = [NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage];
for (cookie in [storage cookies]) {
    [storage deleteCookie:cookie];
}

Your only option then is to remove the webview and create a new one. There are no public api's for clearing the history of a webview.
