Internet history over 7 days old?

[jools182]

My stock browser reset itself this morning and I had around 6 tabs open that I needed to save

I haven't visited most of these tabs in a little while, and the history only gives you the option to search the last 7 days

Is there any way to retrieve the history older than 7 days?

If you mean the Samsung one, you go to internet... Bookmarks... History....

I have a HTC one M8

Ok, have you tried the bookmark thing?

 

[jools182]

Hi, yes it's not in bookmarks

The internet history only gives you the option to look at last 7 days

Are you using the Chrome browser?

If so, try going to https://myactivity.google.com/ and log into your Google/Gmail account. Depending on your configuration, you may find years worth of history there.

Somewhat scary, actually...

I don't know what the "stock" browser is; it may or may not be a version of Chrome. Go to the site I linked above and see what is there.

stock browser is the browser that comes installed on the phone

Ugh. I know that. What I mean is that I do not know if the stock browser on your phone is a Chrome variant.

The question remains - did you check the myactivity site or did you not?
