Safari uses iCloud to keep your browsing history the same on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac computers that have iCloud set up for Safari. Your Mac can keep your browsing history for as long as a year, while some iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch models keep browsing history for a month. To change how often your Mac removes items from your history, see Change General settings.
