What’s new · Version 2.0.0
A little more useful.
Every day.
Your familiar history exporter now helps you find your way back, even when you do not need a file.
Welcome back to HistoryOut.
Your existing export preferences stay with you. Everything is still free, with no additional permissions.
A daily look back.
Choose Today or Yesterday, then Preview. See your visits, pages and top websites, and reopen a useful page straight from the trail.
A shortcut to your research.
Search titles and URLs, filter by website, then save a named view. Next time, apply it and Preview to pick up the thread.
More control over your file.
Preview matching rows, keep one row per URL, or remove query strings and fragments. Choose your fields and export CSV, JSON or clickable HTML.
A calmer workspace.
A clearer layout for Chromium browsers, progress and cancellation, an easy way to tell a friend, and an optional support link.
Try this tomorrow morning.
- Open HistoryOut from your browser’s extensions menu.
- Choose Yesterday and select Preview.
- Find the page you left behind. Open it and carry on.
You can close this page when you are ready. HistoryOut is waiting in your browser’s extensions menu.
