How to completely delete Incognito search history on Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac devices
Want to keep your browsing private? Know how to delete incognito search history on Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac with these simple, effective steps.









Incognito mode is a useful feature for privacy, but it doesn't always erase all traces of your online activity. While it prevents your browser from storing history, some data might still remain in other parts of your system. This guide explains how to delete your incognito search history on Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac devices to help you maintain your privacy.
What Is Incognito Mode?
Incognito mode in web browsers prevents the saving of browsing history, cookies, and other site data. When you use incognito mode, your browsing activity is not logged in the browser history, and data like form inputs or search queries are not saved. However, it does not hide your online activity from websites, your ISP, or network administrators.
