  2. Touch the Tabs icon at the bottom of the screen.

Private browsing is something that is offered by most Web browsers, and it’s something that’s useful when you want to browse without saving your history.

In Google Chrome, the private browsing mode is called “Incognito Mode.” If you use Chrome on your computer, then you may already be aware of how to use Incognito Mode in that version of the browser.

The Chrome app on your iPhone has an Incognito Mode, too, but you may be having trouble finding it. Our guide below will show you how.
