Summary
History Janitor is a good way to manage what's showing up in your address bar.
Let's say you're starting to type "you" or "red" and some unwanted URLs are showing up... Well, with this extension, you can prevent that by adding the keyword to the blacklist.
It will automatically search (every minutes) and delete the URLs that contains any keywords in the blacklist.
Suggestions and feedback are welcomed !
User reviews
Just doesn't work
It was working if Google Account isn't signed in. I think this is a Chrome bug that if you signed in Chrome, chrome.history.deleteUrl no longer works..
Safety
Risk impact
History Janitor is relatively safe to use as it requires very minimum permissions.
Risk likelihood
History Janitor may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
