    To delete your Google search history on Chrome, open the configuration menu clicking on the ⋮ icon on the top-right corner of the Chrome window, go to 'Settings,' then 'Advanced Features,' then 'Privacy and Security'—or 'Privacidad y Seguridad' if your Chrome is in Spanish like mine. Finally, select 'Clear browsing data' and select the options you need.

    Tap the dots in the top right corner. Scroll down and select "Delete search history." Next time, I recommend opening an incognito tab by tapping the tabs button (the square with a number), then the dots, and then selecting "Open a new incognito tab." Your search history, preferences, etc., will not be saved.

    Go to myactivity.google.com and sign into your Google account. Here, you can select either Bundle view or Item view, then click the 3-dot menu button at the top right of an entry to delete it. You can also delete local search history by clearing your browsing data.
