Yes, you can view and manage your browsing history in Brave. To access your browsing history, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open Brave and click on the three horizontal lines (hamburger menu) on the top-right corner of the browser window.
  2. From the menu that appears, click on "History". Alternatively, you can also use the shortcut "Ctrl + H" (or "Cmd + H" on macOS).
  3. You will now see a list of your browsing history, with the most recent URLs at the top.


From this interface, you have several options to manage your browsing history:

  • Clear browsing data: To clear your browsing history, click on the "Clear browsing data" option at the top of the history page. You can choose to remove only the browsing history or select other types of data such as cookies, cache, and more.
  • Search: You can use the search bar at the top of the history page to look for specific URLs or terms within your browsing history.
  • Visit a specific page: You can click on any URL in the history list to revisit that particular webpage.


Please note that Brave, by default, does not store your browsing history, which enhances your online privacy. However, you have the option to enable the history feature and choose how long you want to retain browsing history if you wish to keep a record.
