Clean the browser history on your Galaxy phone
Internet browsers keep track of every web page you visit, which has its pros and cons. It's convenient if you want a site to remember your shipping details for shopping, but it's not so great if you're concerned about privacy. Residual data can also accumulate in your cache and slow down the browser. If you're worried, you can easily clear your browsing data to help clean things up.
