App keeps on displaying cached html pages, cannot clear cache #59

I use the latest version of WallPanel to display my Hass.io frontend, mainly this alarm panel. It is basically a long html file with lots of options. When I changed something (swapped an order of buttons), I was able to see a new layout in Chrome (desktop) by clearing cached images and files. However, the WallPanel keeps on displaying the old layout, and I couldn't find a way to make it display a new one. I rebooted my tablet (Acer Iconia 7), cleared its Chrome browsing data to no avail.

Ok, you can clear cache by going to Settings -> Apps -> WallPanel and then Force Stop, tap on Storage and Clear cache, then run WallPanel again.
