2. How to clear browsing history in Safari for Mac

Today surfing the web has become almost everyday. We spend the day entering the different websites to make purchases, take a look at social networks or look for information on any topic that interests us..

Without a doubt, the pages that we can visit in one day can be immense, and that is why it is recommended that we eliminate this history so as not to load it with unnecessary information. It is also possible that on some occasion we have visited pages that we do not want anyone to know for some reason, and if we have not used the browser in hidden mode , we must delete this type of evidence.

In the case that we work with a Mac, it is very likely that the browsers we use are Safari or Chrome, so below we will explain how you can delete the browsing history in both cases..

In both cases a small window will be displayed in which we must select a time option for deleting the history. If we want it to be completely, we select the option of “All history”
