This will open a menu and your activity log will be displayed. The log shows the activities you&#8217;ve carried out on the site, as well as any searches you&#8217;ve performed. To clear specific entries, click the symbol next to the search term you want to delete. If you want to delete the entire log, go to Settings &gt; General.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clear_searches\"><\/span>Clear searches<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One way to get rid of your Facebook search history is to go into your account settings and clear your browsing history. You can clear this history individually or all at once. In either case, you need to delete the cookies that Facebook stores on your device. Here are some tips that will help you clear your search history:<\/p>\n<p>Go to your profile page and tap on &#8220;Activity log&#8221;. Here you will find the Logged actions and other activities section. Scroll down and you will see &#8220;Search history.&#8221; Tap on &#8220;Clear all&#8221; to delete all your search history. Alternatively, you can delete specific entries by tapping the three-dot icon. You can also delete all your history by deleting your account. If you do not want to delete your browsing history, it is best to delete it all at once.<\/p>\n<p>You can also choose to delete specific searches. To do this, click on the Search History link under your profile photo. Click on the three-dot symbol next to the search term. This will bring up a list of the searches that you have conducted on the platform. Delete specific entries or clear all. You must confirm the deletion to delete your search history. You can also choose to delete your search history in bulk. Just keep in mind that once you delete your search history, you won&#8217;t be able to recover them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tap_Confirm\"><\/span>Tap Confirm<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can also delete your search history on Facebook. Facebook uses your search history to better show you relevant results, collect information about you, and more. To delete your entire search history, tap the &#8216;Clear search history&#8217; button. This won&#8217;t disable search logging on Facebook, but it will let you know that all searches have been deleted. To do so, tap the &#8216;Clear all searches&#8217; button and confirm.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have confirmed the deletion, open the Activity Log screen in Facebook. Then, tap the three-dot icon at the bottom of the screen. On the activity log screen, you can view all searches and tap &#8220;Nothing to Show.&#8221; When you&#8217;re done, you&#8217;ll see &#8216;Nothing to Show&#8217; in the search bar. Tap this button to delete each individual entry. Then, tap &#8216;Clear all searches&#8217; again to restore the previous history.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can access the Facebook app on your mobile device. Tap the icon in the bottom left corner of your screen. This will take you to your News Feed. Tap the &#8220;Search Facebook&#8221; box in the top-right corner of the screen. Click on &#8216;Clear search history&#8217; and confirm the action. To delete the search history on Facebook, you must have a Facebook account. You can access your account information through your smartphone or computer.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tap_Off-Facebook_Activity\"><\/span>Tap Off-Facebook Activity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Off-Facebook Activity is an overview of the third-party websites you visit on a regular basis. It allows you to clear your browsing history by disabling the tracking features that Facebook uses to keep track of your movements. This tool is available on some countries, including Ireland, South Korea, and Spain. It will be rolled out to all users globally in the coming months. Alternatively, you can use the Facebook browser to clear your browsing history.<\/p>\n<p>From the settings page, tap Off-Facebook Activity to clear your Facebook search history. Tap &#8220;Clear History&#8221; on the second option down from the bold title. In the small box next to the description, tap the blue button to clear your history. You can also turn off future off-Facebook activity. To stop future tracking, tap on the Off-Facebook Activity option and tap &#8220;Clear History&#8221; to stop receiving off-Facebook messages and activity.<\/p>\n<p>Off-Facebook Activity is a section of Your Facebook Information. In order to manage this activity, you need to enter your password. This page shows the data providers and sites that have shared your Facebook account information. To clear your Facebook search history, you should choose the option that allows you to manage your activity. To remove your Facebook search history, you should first clear your personal data in Facebook. You can use this option to delete information that has been stored in your profile.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe height=\"285\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CXg9KKsAZtw\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"509\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Clear Facebook Search History You can clear your Facebook search history by clicking on the three-dot symbol under your profile picture.
