    Incognito Mode

    Private browsing — for the right reasons.

    1. How to open

    Tap the three-dot menu. Tap New Incognito tab. The screen turns dark.

    2. Good uses

    Shop without seeing ads later. Sign in to a friend's account on a borrowed device.

    3. What is private

    History and cookies clear when you close the window. Saved passwords still work.

    4. Not invisible

    Your internet provider and the websites you visit can still see what you do.

    5. Close it fast

    Tap the squares icon. Swipe Incognito tabs away to clear them quickly.

    6. Does not block scams

    Incognito does not protect from phishing or fake sites. Stay alert.

    Use Incognito for shopping or research, not for banking — public networks are still risky.
