Description of the issue: Dear Brave-Developer,

What I find a repeating issue is that the browser history can either be deleted completely or has to be deleted manually page by page. Many other browsers like Safari include the possibility to delete only the last hour, last 24 hours, or last week. Of course, I know the possibility to use a private tab, but I would appreciate if you would include this, because sometimes you forget to use a private tab and then you need to delete very time consuming every site one by one.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Implement different history deletion options

Expected result: possibility to delete the last hour, 24 hours, last week of the browser history

Mobile Device details

Additional Information:

This feature already exists in Brave.

Go to Settings → Privacy and Security → Clear browsing data, and you can choose a time range such as Last hour, Last 24 hours, Last 7 days, Last 4 weeks, or All time before clearing your history.

If you’re referring specifically to deleting only recent entries directly from the History page, without opening the Clear Browsing Data menu, then that would be a separate feature request. Otherwise, the functionality you’re requesting is already available in Brave.
