Clearing your browser history is a skill that every web user should know, especially if you're sharing your iPad with others. The process depends on what browser you are using. See Step 1 below to learn how to clear browsing history for both Safari and Chrome on an iPad.

  3. Delete your browsing history. you can delete your browsing history by tapping the "Clear History" button. you will be asked to confirm that you would like to delete all the entries. This cannot be undone.





    • If the button is unavailable to tap, then there is no history to delete. You may be using a different browser for surfing, such as Chrome. If that is the case, see the next section.



  4. Delete your cookies. You can delete the cookies that sites have placed on your iPad and other caching data by tapping the "Clear Cookies and Data" button located directly beneath the "Clear History" button. You will be asked to confirm that you want to remove these items.





  5. Browse privately in the future. If you find yourself deleting your history regularly, you may want to browse using private windows instead. When using this mode, Safari will not log any browsing history. To start a private browsing session, click the "+" icon in the toolbar of Safari to open a new tab. At the bottom of the new tab, tap the "Private" button. You will be asked if you want to keep any existing tabs open.[1]

  6. Browse privately in the future. If you find yourself deleting your history regularly, you may want to browse using an Incognito window instead.

You can start an Incognito window by tapping the Menu (☰) button and selecting "New Incognito Tab". Any browsing done in this tab will not be logged by the iPad.
