A new feature is reportedly being introduced by Google Android that allows users to delete the last 15 minutes of their search history.
The Google app for Android will receive this feature over the next few weeks, according to a company spokesperson.
“We’re continuing to explore ways to bring this helpful feature to other surfaces,” he said in a statement.
A number of people have noticed the feature. Open Google’s Android app and tap your profile picture to check if you have it. Next, you’ll need to look for the “Delete last 15 min” option.
Google first announced this feature last year in May and it was made available for Google’s iOS app in July.
At that time, the company said the feature would come on the Android version of the app later in 2021. However for some reasons, it missed the deadline.
It is yet not clear if Google plans to bring the feature to desktop. In its May announcement post, the company didn’t specify which platforms it would be available on.
Google already has a tool to automatically delete things in your search history that are three, 18, or 36 months old.
