On an iOS device:

  1. Open the Safari app on your iOS device.
  2. Tap on the bookmarks icon located in the bottom-right corner of the screen (looks like an open book).
  3. Tap on “History”.
  4. Tap on “Clear” located in the upper-right corner of the screen.
  5. Tap on “Clear History and Website Data” to confirm your action.

On a Mac:

  1. Open the Safari app on your Mac.
  2. Click on “History” located in the top menu bar.
  3. Click on “Clear History…”
  4. Select the time range for which you wish to clear your history, such as “Last Hour” or “All History”.

And that's it! You have now successfully cleared your Safari browsing history on your iOS or Mac device. Keep in mind that clearing your browsing history will remove any saved passwords, auto-fill information, and other data associated with your browsing session. If you need to keep this information, it is best to not clear your browsing history.
