Browser compatibility
Your history. Your browser.
HistoryOut uses the shared Chromium extension APIs and a browser-neutral interface. The same core export workflow is prepared for Chrome, Microsoft Edge and Brave.
The extension has been tested with real history reads and CSV, JSON and HTML exports in isolated Chromium and Microsoft Edge profiles. Brave supports Chrome Web Store extensions, but a Brave-specific runtime test is still pending. The updated package is being prepared for store release.
| Browser | Distribution | Workspace |
|---|---|---|
| Chrome | Existing Chrome Web Store listing. V2 package prepared. | Side panel on supported desktop versions. |
| Microsoft Edge | Edge Add-ons package prepared. No Edge listing is claimed yet. | Sidebar API supported by Edge. |
| Brave | Chromium package prepared for installation through the Chrome Web Store. | Side panel when supported; full-page fallback when unavailable. |
| Other Chromium browsers | Generic package prepared with two permissions: history and storage. | Full-page workspace from the toolbar. |
Chrome, Edge and Brave packages retain the existing three permissions: history, storage and sidePanel. The generic fallback package removes sidePanel. No package adds host access, content scripts or a new permission.
Install in your browser
For the currently released extension, use the Chrome Web Store listing. Brave supports Chrome Web Store extensions. Edge can allow extensions from other stores, or use its own Add-ons store when an approved HistoryOut listing exists. Do not install from a third-party ZIP mirror.
Firefox and Safari use different extension platforms and are not included in this release. Mobile support is not claimed.
