About Browser History

The Web App Cannot Read Your Browsing History

Browsers do not let websites read your browsing history. Curv Link runs as a website, so it cannot read Chrome's history, and Curv Link Web Helper does not read your history either; it only handles bookmarks and the tab you choose to add.

No Import from History in the Web App

For this reason, the Data tab of Settings in the web version of Curv Link has no Import from History option. Use the ways below to add the sites you visit often.

Adding Sites You Visit Often

  • Import your bookmarks with Web Helper, or from a bookmarks HTML file. See Importing Bookmarks.
  • Add sites one by one from the + icon, or pick them from Settings → Links → Common Links.
  • With Web Helper, add the page you are viewing from the extension's popup, or bookmark it with Chrome's star button so it is added to Curv Link.
  • Paste a list of URLs with Settings → Data → Add from Pasted Text.

Search History in the Search Bar

The search bar keeps your own past searches in this browser and shows them as you type. This is Curv Link's search history, not your browser's browsing history. Each entry has a delete button.

Tip: Clearing the browser's site data for Curv Link also deletes this search history, along with your links and settings.
