The search history option in shopping apps can be very useful. It makes it easier to find previously found or already purchased items, even if you can’t remember exactly what they were. On the other hand, it may no longer be useful if you have already purchased an item and now looking for something completely different. Nevertheless, offers related to your previous request will appear on the browse page.
In case you want to get rid of search history and previous orders history, here’s how you can do it.
How to delete the search history in Wish app
Unfortunately, there is no option in the Wish app that you can choose to erase items you have searched for. Some social networking apps allow you to go into the settings and simply click Delete browsing/search history. The wish app doesn’t have that option.
However, there are ways to remove unnecessary items from the browse page and start seeing what you are really interested in. Before you do this, remember that the app uses data collected from searches to improve your user experience and help you find items you might like. It can be useful, but if you still want to remove your search history, here’s what you can do.
How to search for other items
Traditional methods, such as deleting app data or cache, don’t work with the Wish app. This method may take longer, but it works.
Once you tap the search bar at the top of the screen on your mobile device, you will see a list of recently searched items. The list can contain up to 15 items. The items you see on the browse page are based on your previous searches. If you don’t like it, you can search for 15 new items, which one by one will replace the items currently in your list of recent searches. After all 15 items have been replaced, the suggestions on the browse page will be based on these new items.
