New update to allow Google's Android app users to erase last 15 minutes of search history

• Google is finally launching its feature that allows users todelete the last 15 minutes of their search history.
• The feature was announced last May at Google I/O.
• Google’s plans to bring the feature on desktop remain unclear.

Google seems to be finally rolling out a new feature where users will be able to erase the last 15 minutes of their search history, reported The Verge.

Former XDA Developers editor-in-chief Mishaal Rahman claimed that the information was tipped to him. Even though the launch has not officially been announced yet, users can tap on their profile picture and search for the “Delete last 15 min” option.

The feature was first announced at Google I/O and appeared at Google’s iOS app in July. Google had said that the feature would appear on the Android version by the end of 2021 but nobody saw that happening.

Google’s plans to bring the feature on desktop remain unclear. Currently, the feature is only for iOS and Android apps.

Google refused to comment further.
