Google may roll out a new feature

• Google may add a new feature to Android to make it easier for Android users to delete their browsing history, according to a report in ChromeStory. The report suggests that the option to delete browsing history of up to last 15 minutes may be added to Chrome's Android app with the latest upcoming date.

Google is always innovating and adding new features. In 2021, the American company enabled users to delete their browsing history of up to the last 15 minutes on the Google app. This feature came in Android devices last year. It allows users to delete their search history and other account activity instantly.

Google may add a new feature to Android to make it easier for Android users to delete their browsing history, according to a report in ChromeStory. The report suggests that the option to delete browsing history of up to last 15 minutes may be added to Chrome's Android app with the latest upcoming date.

Furthermore, the report states that the technology company has added a new flag to the Chrome app for Android. Reportedly, it is now clear that Flagg provides users with an option to help them delete either browsed data or account data, or perhaps both. However, the report states that the option will soon appear in the three dots overflow menu in Chrome.

Meanwhile, the American technology giant is planning to introduce a new feature that will keep users safe from malicious and suspicious HTTP downloads. It is worth noting that when a user visits an HTTP website, Google Chrome classifies it as 'not secure' in the address bar on Android smartphones.

According to a report by 9to5Google, Google is planning to introduce a security feature that will eventually block any insecure downloads that users choose to open via HTTP websites. It is worth mentioning that for the past few years, the US browser has been trying to make Chrome a secure platform by encouraging users to use only HTTPS websites as possible.

To recall, Google Chrome also blocks secure websites from using unsecured web forms by default. It was recently observed that the technology giant had made a new toggle feature under Settings 'Always use secure connection'. Once this is enabled, the browser will attempt to upgrade to the HTTPS version of websites if a user accidentally navigates to an insecure version. Additionally, if there is no secure version, the browser will display an on-screen warning asking users whether or not they want to continue.
