Three Add-ons for Looking Up Your Previous Online Activity History
If you use Google Chrome, you may have noticed that the history feature, which allows you to view all of your previous activities over a period of seven days, seven days, or seven days, cannot be used for longer than the allotted time.
Thankfully, there are ways to improve the usability and accessibility of your history page. Try these Google Chrome extensions to make your past activity log easier to search and more accessible if you're constantly looking for your past and need a little assistance.
1- History Manager:
If you want to get additional information from your history page, try the History Manager extension, which makes it easier to clear your browsing history.
Search terms can now be applied to specific dates. This allows you to refine your searches; if you don't remember the name of a page but remember when you visited it, you can simply group it into a single day and search there. You can also delete individual history items or clear the entire history.
The statistics page also displays the sites you visit most often and the places where you spend most of your time. In the settings, you can make pages from specific sites invisible in case they have intersections that are clogging your history.
2. History Search:
While the default Google Chrome history has a search feature, it only displays the page names of the sites you've visited and doesn't search within the pages themselves. The History Search extension fixes this issue by providing a way to search the page titles and contents of the sites you've visited.
This extension requires a login, and once you're logged in, only 250 pages can be imported from your history. However, for a quick and easy way to search through the pages you've visited since installing the extension, History Search does the job well.
3. History Trends Unlimited:
You may have noticed that some sites you visited a while ago have been erased from your history, even though you never manually removed them. This is because Chrome deletes pages 90 days after they're created. If you'd like to keep your history for longer, try the History Trends Unlimited extension.
This great extension stores an extended history of web pages on your hard drive, giving you more data. Unfortunately, once you delete the extension, the extended history is erased with it, meaning you have to keep it if you want to also keep your history. It does more than just store more pages; it can also monitor which pages you visit the most, the time you visit those pages, and the search function.
Overall, the default Google History feature lacks a lot of features, but none of these extensions can be fixed immediately. At least these extensions allow you to make your history searchable and more manageable and even store pages for a longer period than the regular Google Chrome History.
