Check or delete your Chrome browsing history

Websites you’ve visited are recorded in your browsing history. You can check or delete your browsing history, and find related searches in Chrome. You can also resume browsing sessions on other devices if you’re signed in and have your history synced to your Google Account.

When you delete your browsing history in Chrome, it’s also deleted on your devices where you’re signed in to Chrome and have your history synced to your Google Account.

Tip: Separately, you can also delete your Google search history from your account.

Understand and manage your Chrome history

Your History lists the pages you've visited on Chrome in the last 90 days. It doesn't store:

  • Chrome pages like chrome://settings
  • Pages you’ve visited while you browse privately in Incognito mode
  • Deleted pages from your browsing history

Tips:

  • If you’re signed in to Chrome and sync your history, then your History also shows pages you’ve visited on your other devices.
  • If you don’t want Chrome to save your browsing history, you can browse in Incognito mode.
