Your Android smartphone keeps track of all the searches you make on Google and any website you visit through Chrome in the history. Most of the time, that is not a problem but the problem is that we tend to forget it. In addition, not everyone always thinks of surfing in private navigation. Fortunately, there is an unstoppable way to delete this history.
When you lend your cell phone, have friends or an indiscreet spouse, or simply because you want to protect your privacy on Android, you would sometimes like to keep your searches on the internet confidential. For this, there is the incognito mode of Chrome but which unfortunately can potentially prevent certain applications from working.
When you have already visited several sites and do not want it to be known (we know what you are thinking, gangs of rascals), it is always possible to delete your Google history on Android. The method is extremely simple.
