The main site stores the search history data in your browser cache, and the old queries you&#8217;ve searched are stored in your browser&#8217;s autofill history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-6\">You can also delete the individual terms if you are unwilling to delete the entire history. You&#8217;ll see a list of searched terms on Reddit&#8217;s search bar where you can click X, or the trash icon found right next to the term you want to remove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to remove Reddit search terms individually:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-13\"><li>Locate the Reddit website, and click on the&nbsp;<strong>search box<\/strong>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-32-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5424\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-32-1024x576.png 1024w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-32-300x169.png 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-32-768x432.png 768w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-32-1536x864.png 1536w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-32.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-13\"><li>Hover your cursor over the search term and click the X or the trashcan icon.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-33-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5425\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-33-1024x576.png 1024w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-33-300x169.png 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-33-768x432.png 768w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-33-1536x864.png 1536w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-design-33.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-13\"><li>As the unwanted term is removed, you can repeat the same to remove more terms.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-29\">How to Delete Reddit Search History on Android or IOS?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>You can delete your Reddit search history on Android and IOS in almost the same way.
