History Limiter Custom: Control Your Browsing History

History Limiter Custom is a Chrome extension aimed to control the volume of saved browsing items. By setting a limitation on the number of days, users can manage the volume of information stored in their browser history. An edited version of nschneirov's History Limiter, this extension has improvements such as removal of the need for jQuery, and event page enablement allowing it to unload when not needed, saving memory. Other changes include minor UI tweaks, and the ability of history to trim right after day value edits.
