How to delete Facebook search history

A question I often get asked is “how to delete Facebook search history?” 

As a Facebook user, one would expect this option to be right next to the Facebook Graph Search box (the logical place) or at least included in the account settings menu.

So why does Facebook make it so difficult to delete Facebook search history?

While we’ll never know the logic behind why Facebook makes the decisions that it does, what we can do is walk you through the necessary steps to delete your search history.

But before we do that, let’s talk about the impact of deleting Facebook search history.

Should you delete Facebook search history?

While you can delete your search history on Facebook, should you? That’s a tough one to answer. It really depends on what your reasoning is.

If your parents have access to your Facebook account, deleting your searches might be a good idea – especially if there’s something you’ve searched for that you don’t want them to find.

The same can be said if you’re someone who is in a committed relationship  and you’re looking to meet someone else.

Outside of these two cases, there’s really not a need to delete Facebook search history. Deleting your search history means that if you frequently search for something, you may not get the results as quickly as you would like them. 

Also, it’s not like if you delete your search history, Facebook cannot use your data. Chances are they collect your data and analyze it before you can even hit the delete Facebook search history button.
