Manage shopping preferences on Google Search

By saving your shopping preferences, you can browse products more easily and find relevant results more quickly. For example, you can save your favorite brands or department.

Save your department preference

You can save your retail department preference when you search for a product category.

You can find the types of apparel you're interested in with Google's personalization features.

To save your department preference:

  1. On your device, go to google.com.
  2. Search for a product category, like jeans or winter coat.
  3. Set the filter to one of the options, like Women’s or Men’s.
  4. When the prompt appears:
    • To save your preference, choose Save.
    • To decline, choose Don’t save.

Tips:

  • If you shop in all departments, you don’t have to set a department preference.
  • As Google improves the shopping experience, inclusive products and features are a priority.
  • This feature doesn’t ask for your gender identification.

Save your favorite brands

You can save brands in some product categories, like “jeans” or “shoes.” Products from your favorite brands display more often in your search results. You can update your favorite brands in your shopping preferences.
