Mobile "Clear Search History" Best Practice

I'm building an iOS app. Within the app my users are searching for other users. The searched users kept and show in a "Search History" list when there is not input inside the Search Bar.

When the Search Bar is active, There is a default "Cancel" button along side the Search Bar that causing a bit of "tight" space both for the "Cancel" and the "Clear" buttons. As well, both of them sort of the same size and looks similar. The clear button is in a static position above the list, and below the Search Bar.

What will be considered as a better UX than using the current form of "Static Clear Button"? Moving it to the center, or even use a different micro copy?s
