Google released a today information which facilitates them users to delete it record search. For those who don't know the company records the search activity of logged in users and links it to their account.
Although it was possible to delete this activity, the way it was done was not very simple. Users had to open the "My Activity" page after logging in to their Google Account to delete some or all of the entries. However, the page did not have a "delete all" option.
From now on, things will be much easier, as only one click on the "Your data in Search" page is required to delete the entire search history that Google has saved in your account.
Google also added a link to the options managementof data on the main page of the search (Google Search), but users of the company's services can also directly open the following link:
https://myactivity.google.com/privacyadvisor/search
The "Your data in Search" administration page will open. Scroll down and you will see the option "Delete your Search activity."
Select "Delete all Search activity" to delete the entire history or "Delete last hour" to delete searches performed in the last 60 minutes.
Confirm that you want the records to be deleted by selecting “delete” at emerging window.
The popup window highlights that Google may retain some telemetry data, e.g. the number of searches for a user after deleting the search activity you have selected.
Google, on the other hand, has published a YouTube video that reports the benefits of capturing a user's search activity.
Changes are available for mobile and web searches today. Google plans to update both Android and iOS apps to integrate this feature. We will see the applications in the coming weeks.
