Technically, you can’t clear the entire Google Play Store purchase history. However, you can remove individual purchase items if you don’t want to get a refund.
Removing an item from the purchase history means you’ll lose access to that item and won’t be able to claim a refund. Here’s how to clear your Google Play Store Purchase history in easy steps.
- Open Google Play Store. Tap on your Profile photo at the top right.
- On the menu that appears, select Payments & Subscriptions.
- Next, tap on the Budget & History.
- Under the Purchase History, tap the three dots next to the purchase item.
- On the menu that appears, select Delete Forever.
You need to repeat these steps for each purchase you want to delete. If there are no three dots next to your purchases, you won’t be able to remove them. Not all items can be deleted from the Budget & History page.
If you cannot recall the name of an app you purchased, you can check the purchase history on the Play Store. I hope this article helped you! Please share it with your friends also. If you have any doubts, let us know in the comment box below.
