Why does the chrome browser always open up to the last web page I looked at?

Just got a Samsung Galaxy S5. Tried out the Chrome browser, and then when I went back to it later it displayed the last website I was on. How can I make it come up with a blank screen (just an empty search box displaying). Thanks.

Make sure that you either

1: back out of chrome (not just hit the home button)

2: close the chrome app in the task manager.

That way your "home" page will open every time you open chrome, not just the last page you visited.

In other words, how do you clear the last search?

Thanks, bizzareone. That makes sense. Why didn't I think of it? It's just taking time to get used to this phone!
