I created this video to help you clear out your entire ChatGPT chat history — either for privacy, a fresh start, or just decluttering. Watch it here:

ChatGPT saves all your conversations in the sidebar, and over time it can get crowded. In the video, I show how to:

  1. Log into https://chat.openai.com
  2. Click your name or email in the lower-left corner
  3. Select Settings > Data Controls
  4. Click Clear all chats, then confirm

This instantly deletes all saved conversations. If you’ve synced the mobile app, the deletion reflects there too. I also explain how this doesn’t affect your subscription or system prompts — just your saved chats.

I use this every so often when I’ve had dozens of active threads and want a clean sidebar again.

Do you keep your ChatGPT conversations, or clear them out regularly?
