Better Browser History

Better Browser History is a private browser history search and analytics extension for Chrome. It replaces Chrome’s History page with a fast local workspace for finding pages, revisiting browsing sessions, and understanding where your measured active time goes. Search beyond titles and URLs. When you enable page-content capture, full-text search can find a page using words you remember reading on it. Repeat visits are grouped, while sessions and journeys reconnect related pages. FEATURES • Search saved titles, URLs, and visible page text • See measured time spent by site and category • Review daily trends, busy hours, heatmaps, and top engaged pages • Revisit browsing sessions and navigation journeys • Group repeat visits with visit counts • Star important pages and add tags or notes • Exclude websites from capture • Configure page-content capture, engagement measurement, and retention • Export or import a local JSON backup PRIVATE BY DESIGN Capture is off until you review the disclosure and explicitly enable it. Data is stored locally in your browser profile. There is no account, cloud history service, advertising, telemetry, or remotely hosted executable code. You can pause capture, exclude websites, disable page-content or engagement capture, export your data, or erase everything at any time. Better Browser History replaces only Chrome’s History page. It does not change New Tab, your homepage, startup pages, bookmarks, or search engine. Chrome-protected pages cannot be captured. Active-time analytics use measured foreground, non-idle activity and show measurement coverage instead of estimating missing time.
