    I will try to make it compatible with Android the next time I work on updating Historia.

    Hi erosman, thanks for this extension. Do you plan on exporting this to chrome? I recently switched to chrome but didnt find an extension like this one. Thanks!

    Amazing cruft remover! Should be included with Firefox by default. If you think the
    (a) delete everything for all time
    (b) keep everything and find nothing later, or
    (c) click ten thousand items one-by-one approaches
    ...are lacking, this extension is for you. It allows you to *keep* useful history entries while getting rid of countless thousands of useless entries for things like search results, email messages, forced pagination (click to continue reading), Extensions settings, and much more.

    Note for AIOS users: The options are in the "more details..." page, so you'll need to type about:addons in the Awesome bar and click on them in the in-content extensions page to be able to see them properly.

    Looked for a working addon that helps cleaning up my history.
    Google entries are over 10,000 and unfortunately this addon is not able to remove them all.

    Script hangs. Obviously there is a problem as there are no entries removed.

    Besides that it looks promising. Will try it in the future again.


    Update: thanks for the quick reply. There is no information about the slow processing of history deletion in the description here. So this is new info.

    Tried to remove 1000 entries in the options and it stated that the entries were removed. But FF still shows the big amount of history entries. Will try to post on the Support Site and update this review.

    The history deletion of Firefox is very slow and it has nothing to do with the add-on. Try doing it manually and directly in Firefox by deleting 1000 entries and see Firefox hang.

    I wrote the add-on to prevent the history from getting large and improve privacy.

    Very good addon. Prevents "garbage" URLs (including redirects) being stored to history. Also can auto-delete older history entries based on number of days.

    I have found that the basic Glob type RegEx covers all the necessary situations (and is simple enough for general use). If there are examples of where a RegEx is the only possible option, I will add full RegEx support.
