# Revisiting webpages

As you open webpages, Safari records their locations. Safari stores about a week’s worth of webpages you have opened.

## To return to a webpage, use one of these methods:

■

Arrow buttons

Click the Left Arrow and Right Arrow buttons to move through your history one page at a time. Click and hold the buttons to choose from a list of previous pages.

■

History menu

Open the History menu to choose from a longer history list, or choose one of the Reopen options.

■

SnapBack button

Click the SnapBack button (an orange circle with a left-pointing arrow) to return to the SnapBack page.

If you open a page by typing its address in the address box, or if you go to a page and then choose History > ”Mark Page for Snapback,” the page becomes the SnapBack page. The SnapBack button (an orange circle with a left-pointing arrow) appears in the address field to indicate that a page has been marked as a SnapBack page.
