I updated my iOS, and the default on clear history is 1 day
i prefer it delete all history and ask to close tabs like my iPad does
how do I change the default settings in my phone to clear all history
iPhone SE, iOS 17
Please make a default setting to: always clear all history, data, and close web pages. Currently, you have to make multiple choices to choose all and close web pages every time you end a session. In the prior version it was one touch to do it all now it is three touches.

I agree. The change is moving backwards.
Hello BillPerch,
To clear Safari history, cache, and cookies on an iPhone, you'd need to revisit the page you came from for a solution: Clear the history, cache, and cookies from Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Delete history, cache, and cookies
1. Go to Settings > Safari.
2. Tap Clear History and Website Data.
Clearing your history, cookies, and browsing data from Safari won't change your AutoFill information.
When there's no history or website data to clear, the button to clear it turns gray. The button might also be gray if you have web content restrictions set up under Content & Privacy Restrictions in Screen Time.
To visit sites without leaving a history, turn Private Browsing on.
When you tap on 'Clear History and Website Data' it will open a window with options for clearing timeframes and if you'd like to close all tabs. Once you select the appropriate options, then tap on 'Clear History'.
If these steps don't solve it, are you using a Screen Time restrictions? Is the device managed by a school or business? The more we can understand, the better we can assist.
Let us know if that helps out.
Take care.
I want to set my clear history to be all history, not just one day
