How to disable Caching, Autofill and History in Webview

Question

In my android app, webview is used to open up a web page. The webpage has a login page and search website box. I can see the values being searched and login/ password info is being pre-populated when someone revisit the site using app. How Can this be avoided?

Was able to stop autofill of forms and login information save using

myWebView.clearFormData();
myWebView.getSettings().setSavePassword(false);
myWebView.getSettings().setSaveFormData(false);
