“How do I delete my search history on the Safari iPad browser?”
It’s always a good idea to remove your search history so no else can see them. I’m not here to judge, only here to save you from the embarrassment.
So here’s how to delete search history on the iPad:
1. From the main screen go to “Settings”.
2. Tap on “Safari”.
3. One the right hand side scroll down a bit till you see the “Clear History, Clear Cookies and the Clear Cache” section.
4. Tap any of those three choices to delete it.
5. You will see a confirmation window pop up, hit “Clear” and say bye bye to those questionable searches.

This does not work on my ipad2
I didn’t have a pop-up window to clear – I have an ipad 1 does that matter – and bye the way my file seems to have cleared
There is another way
1. In ur safari there is ‘bookmark’ (an open book symbol) click it
2. It popup a menu in that click history a second window slide in with ur history
3. A ‘clear history’ button will be on the top right corner click it
4. Two button shows up 1. Clear history 2. Cancel do what u want and there ur safari history is history…. This will not show in the search bar ….
