Google Discover curates a personalized feed based on your interests, search history, and other data. This feed can be accessed through the Google Home app on both Android and iOS devices. On Android, it can also be found by swiping right on the home screen unless you have disabled it. While Discover usually surfaces relevant content, it isn’t flawless and can sometimes show irrelevant material. If your feed becomes cluttered with irrelevant content, resetting it can help you start fresh.
Why Reset Google Discover?
Over time, Discover might show content that isn’t relevant. You can block topics and publishers, but sometimes resetting the app is easier. Resetting clears the gathered data without losing important information like contacts, Wi-Fi credentials, or social media logins. It also resets algorithm-based preferences.
