Who builds FlarePurge

FlarePurge is made by Color Vivo Internet, SL, a Spanish company based in Madrid and Herencia (Ciudad Real). The idea came from David Carrero. We are not affiliated with Cloudflare, Inc. in any way.

Why this app exists

Because clearing a Cloudflare cache from a phone meant logging into a dashboard designed for a mouse, passing two-factor authentication, and hunting through a zone list — every single time. That is fine twice a year and absurd twice a week.

What we can actually claim to know

We have implemented the Cloudflare cache purge API four times, in four languages, for four platforms: Swift for iPhone, iPad and Mac, Kotlin for Android, and a native desktop app for Windows. Three are published in their respective stores.

Doing the same integration four times teaches you things one implementation does not. Where the API documentation is ambiguous, which errors it actually returns versus which ones it documents, what happens at the batch limits, and which of the platform's secure storage APIs behave differently from how they read. That is what the guides are made of.

The code is public

All three apps are open source under the MIT licence. The point is not that anyone will send patches, though they are welcome. The point is that an app which asks for an API token should be one you can read before you trust it.

How it is paid for

It is not. FlarePurge is free with no ads, no in-app purchases and no subscription, and it has no backend to pay for: the app talks straight to Cloudflare from your device. It is a tool we needed, built properly, and given away.
