With the incognito mode it is possible to surf the web normally without the fear of leaving cookies and traces in the history of the computer or device used. This way you can use Google Chrome privately, without the browser saving everything you do on the internet, such as the websites you visit or the files you download. Once you have exited the incognito session, all traces of navigation will be removed. This feature is available in all Google Chrome browsers on numerous platforms, including computers, Android devices, and iOS mobile devices.
