Stop Chrome from recording your browsing history.

No History
Description from store

This extension stops Chrome from recording your browsing history in 'standard' mode. You no longer need to be incognito.

This is a feature in Firefox that many people feel is missing in Chrome. Google will no doubt add this functionality at some stage. Until they do, you can use the No History extension!

One good feature is the ability to 'toggle' the extension on and off.

It's very simple and only took me a couple of hours to put together at a friends request.

For those saying this extension isn't working watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bfeyE4ZseU and then file a bug telling me how it's working differently for you. I can't fix any bug I can't replicate.

I totally forgot about this extension until Google emailed me saying I need to update the manifest. It's amazing that people are actually using it - you're awesome!!

This really was an extension I made in literally an hour the week before Christmas a few years ago. I'll read through your reviews and try and implement the white/black list you've asked for shortly.

Thanks again!

One of the best browser extension. Too bad, it wasn't updated regularly

Matthew H 2024-11-19

It has problem with Google Calendar. When the extension is on, while using Google Calendar after doing some actions it throws back to website before. It is just like pressing backwards button. It can be due to the fact that Calendar uses history to navigate through it. Can you please fix that? Or just add option which websites can be excluded from using this extension. Besides that issue, everything is great.

So it seems to remove like 80% of history but the rest seems to get through so it's not very useful

Solved my issue where I cannot remove search suggestions based on recent browser history. I was going insane for an hour trying to turn that off, it seems google have broken or intentionally broken that option

Нужно сделать возможность исключения для нужных сайтов. Спасибо.

On websites/webapps that use a certain front-end framework (like Google Calendar and Home Assistant), closing dialog boxes can cause the extension to also trigger a browser "back" action, resulting in not only the dialog box closing (as intended), but also going back an additional state/page in the webapp. I thought this was a chrome issue for a very long time and only recently discovered it's because of this addon.

I've been using this extension for a while now and it does a pretty good job at automatically removing my browsing history. However, every once in a while a history entry manages to slip through and not get removed, but still, great extension. This extension does have a bug with some Google services like Google Forms and Google Calendar, causing them to refresh or go back, but it works perfectly with most websites.

This is a pretty simple extension that does what it claims to do. However, I encountered a peculiar issue: when I visit Google Calendar and create / edit / delete an event, Chrome pops up a dialog reading: "Leave site?" - this *only* occurs when running the No History extension, and stopped happening when I disabled or removed No History. I had to unload the extension and switch to an alternative extension that doesn't cause this behavior.

I actually like this extension but there are two bugs in two different chrome web apps that drop this down to 2 stars. First is Google Meet. 1. Go to https://meet.google.com/ 2. Click 'New Meeting' -> 'Start an Instant Meeting' 3. Click to Settings 4. Exit Settings This exits the Meeting. Second is Google Tasks. 1. Go to https://tasks.google.com/embed/?origin=https://calendar.google.com&fullWidth=1 (opens Google Tasks as a standalone website) 2. Switch tasks lists twice This exits Google Tasks. I don't know why this extension is doing this, but it's hitting the 'back' button on the browser. Turning this extension on and off enables/disables the bugs I mentioned above.

I've been using it for years. I can't really complain. However, recently, I discovered that I can't create Google Calendar events when this plugin is enabled >.<
