Love to browse the latest trends on the Internet? Hate to leave behind a trail of what you did on your phone? Till now, you could go to the history feature in order to delete your browser data going back up to 1 hour. But things may change soon for all Android smartphone users. Instead of an hour, they will be able to delete Google Chrome history for a period as short as 15 minutes, a Chrome Story report has revealed.

As per the report, Google is working on a new ‘Quick Delete’ feature, which will let Chrome users on Android devices delete the browsing data even for the last 15 minutes. They will need to tap the three-dots settings menu in the top right corner to access the feature when, and if, it is rolled out.
