Using the above phone and the most up-to date version of firefox mobile for android (Ver. 21.0), In the settings it only has the option to Delete Private Data and is unlike the videos i have seen where it also has the option to delete history (just above). Deleting everything from the Private Data does not remove my history. So how do I remove my history? My android version is 4.2.2., Firefox Version 21.0 & the phone is a Google Nexus 4.

Thank you

Clear Private Data is the Clear history dialog (any videos you saw must be outdated). Click it, and you will get a list of data you can delete.

Hi, thanks for the reply, under clear private data it has a number of things: - Browsing & download history -Download files -form & search history etc... But when i click on the search bar, it comes up with 3 headers, top sites, bookmarks & History. Checking every tickbox in the clear private data selection, and clicking clear data; this still does not remove the history from the above mentioned header, it still lists my entire browsing history.
