Menu labels change between versions of Chrome (Android); the shortcut and the menu don't. ## Delete a whole folder Right-click the folder in the bookmarks list and choose Delete. Everything inside goes with it. ## Deleted the wrong one There is no bin. If sync is on and another device hasn't synced yet, turn that device's Wi-Fi off, open Chrome (Android) there and export or re-save the bookmark before it syncs. ## On a phone Chrome on Android has no bookmarks bar, can't install extensions, and keeps its data in app storage you can't browse. Bookmarks saved on the phone go into the Mobile bookmarks folder and sync to your Google Account if sync is on. Chrome extensions, including Private Bookmarks, run on desktop browsers only, so the private vault lives on your computer; if you need the same pages on your phone, open them from a note or a password manager instead of a synced bookmark. ## Frequently asked questions ### How do I delete all bookmarks in Chrome (Android) at once? Open ⋮ -> Bookmarks (folders at the top; Mobile bookmarks is the default folder), touch and hold one bookmark, tap Select all (or tap each), then the bin. ### Does deleting a bookmark remove it from my other devices? Yes, if bookmarks sync through your Google Account. Turn sync off first if you want to keep them elsewhere. ### Can I recover a deleted bookmark? Not from the phone. If sync is on, a computer that hasn't synced yet still has it. ### Does deleting a bookmark delete my history? No. The visit stays in history. Clear it from Chrome (Android)'s history page, or browse in a private window next time. ## Sources - [Google Chrome Help (Android): Create, view, and edit bookmarks](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/188842?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid) ## Delete bookmarks in other browsers - [How to delete bookmarks in Google Chrome](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/chrome) - [How to delete favorites in Microsoft Edge](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/edge) - [How to delete bookmarks in Chrome on a Chromebook](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/chromebook) - [How to delete bookmarks in Brave](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/brave) - [How to delete bookmarks in Opera](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/opera) - [How to delete bookmarks in Vivaldi](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/vivaldi) - [How to delete bookmarks in Chrome on iPhone and iPad](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks/chrome-iphone) - [All browsers: delete bookmarks](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/delete-bookmarks) ## More for Chrome on Android - [How to bookmark a page in Chrome on Android](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/add-bookmark/chrome-android) - [How to restore lost bookmarks in Chrome on Android](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/restore-bookmarks/chrome-android) - [How to organize bookmarks in Chrome on Android](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/organize-bookmarks/chrome-android) - [How to edit bookmarks in Chrome on Android](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/edit-bookmarks/chrome-android) - [How to sync bookmarks between devices in Chrome on Android](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/sync-bookmarks/chrome-android) - [How to hide bookmarks in Chrome on Android](https://www.vaultforyou.app/bookmarks/hide-bookmarks/chrome-android) --- Private Bookmarks by VaultForYou is a Chrome extension made by VaultForYou.
