Getting out of incognito mode on your iPhone or iPad is easier than you think. You can simply swipe up from the bottom of the screen to bring up the Control Center, then tap the Safari icon to exit incognito mode.

To exit incognito mode in Safari, you'll need to tap the address bar and then select "Done" to return to your normal browsing experience. This will also remove any saved information and browsing history from the incognito session.

If you're using multiple tabs in Safari, make sure to close each one individually to ensure you've exited incognito mode completely. Closing all tabs at once won't necessarily exit incognito mode.
