User reviews
History Trends Unlimited is lauded for extending Chrome's browsing history retention beyond 90 days and offering powerful search and visualization tools. Users appreciate its automatic backups and simple, user-friendly design, making it indispensable for long-term history tracking. However, several users report frequent database corruption leading to crashes and data loss, alongside errors causing malfunction. Some find the default behavior of automatic backups inconvenient and note limitations in search capabilities, especially in non-Latin languages. Despite these issues, it remains a favored tool for comprehensive history management.
Pros
- Allows users to keep and access browsing history beyond Chrome's default 90-day limit, preserving long-term data.
- Offers advanced search functionality superior to Chrome's built-in history search, including searching with wildcard characters.
- Provides features like trends and graphs that visualize browsing history data effectively.
- Automatic local backups help prevent data loss and give peace of mind.
- User-friendly, simple interface that works reliably and enhances the browsing experience.
Cons
- Frequent corruption of the SQLite history database leading to loss of data, impacting usability.
- Errors such as 'SQLITE_ERROR: sqlite3 result code 1: no such vfs: opfs' causing crashes or malfunctioning of the extension.
- Automatic downloading of backup TSV files on browser restart is annoying and lacks customization.
- Search functionality has limitations, such as poor support for partial word searches or searching in non-Latin languages like Chinese.
- The extension relies on Chrome's standard history which deletes data older than 3 months, limiting its effectiveness for some users.
Recent reviews
The search functionality is extremely poor — it fails to support even basic operations that could easily be implemented using a few simple SQLite techniques.

rupert rupert (Nameless King), 2025-04-17My favourite extension of all time. I always want to go back to pages I saw years ago. After realising chrome had limit of history, this was my only saviour. Also, only reason for me to not to migrate to firefox. The fileformat is so flexible that I exported my google search history and imported it to the extension.
