I have noticed that the list of recently closed tabs is getting longer and cannot be cleared. I tried clearing all website data and history, but it didn't help. There should be an option in the settings to clear the list of recently closed tabs. Alternatively, you could add a feature that automatically clears the recently closed tabs list when the browser is restarted.

Recently closed tabs can be cleared in Settings
There should probably just be a limit?
Vlad added the Under Review tag .
Vlad As far as I know, it seems that only Safari and Orion have this recently closed tabs list feature, and Safari doesn't seem to be able to clear this list either. If you think this feature could enhance privacy protection, it would be great to add it. Adding a limit on the number is also another option

I also noticed this recently.
"Close Tabs & Clear Data" (via the three-dot menu) should delete recently closed tabs – as should clearing the history via settings.
fish Safari doesn't seem to be able to clear this list either
Safari clears recently closed tabs when history is cleared (on desktop at least)
Vlad Is there a browser that has this option?
Firefox and Chrome also have this feature and they both clear recently closed tabs when history is cleared.
Clearing recently closed tabs works in every browser I've tried, except Orion, so this should definitely be fixed imho.
This is also an issue on the desktop version of Orion btw

Hello, love the browser. Just downloaded it on iOS and was having this issue. I found that I can clear the recently closed list by having the browser set under privacy to open a new tab on start up, clear history/download on close, never remember history switched on, have all the items on the list open in separate tabs and closing and reopening the browser. Not an ideal solution, but it works for me.
Cheers!
Browse to a site and then close the tab.
Long press does not offer the option to remove. Clearing history does not remove them either.
Clearing history/data should also remove recently closed tabs.
Long press should have option to remove.
Should have option in settings to disable/enable this features.

This was marked as done, but I can't see the option to do this on desktop yet. I expect this to be at least available in the 'reset orion' workflow, but also ideally in the history menu as an option.
