    You can now find history even though it’s removed from the bookmark taskbar there are three icons in the bookmarks the actual book page eyeglasses and o’clock if you click on the clock your recent history still shows as long as you didn’t clear safari it does not show up under favorites like it used to and 10.3 but it shows up still under the clock in iOS 11.3 it’s just not spelled out no need to go back to 10.3 through back up options
