Link History is a list of websites you've visited on Facebook Mobile Browser within the last 30 days. Meta's Link History setting collects the links you've clicked on within the Facebook app. This is limited to links you accessed within Facebook's browser, which automatically pops up when you click on a link within the Facebook app. You can then view all the links you've clicked on and then revisit those links, which will reopen in Facebook's browser.
It's important to note Link History is off by default until you choose to turn it on. You can turn this setting on or off at any time. You might want to turn on Meta’s Link History if you want to easily access the websites you’ve visited on Facebook’s Mobile Browser, and don’t mind Meta using this information to show you more relevant ads.
