# Incognito Sessions

> Enable Jam in incognito or private browsing to capture bugs without leaving a trace in your main session.

## Overview

Jam works seamlessly in incognito mode, giving you complete debugging capabilities while maintaining privacy. Perfect for internal testing, sensitive environments, or when you need to capture bugs without leaving traces in your regular browsing session.

## Key Benefits

* **Full feature access:** All Jam tools work in private browsing mode
* **Complete bug context:** Capture Instant Replay, network logs, console data, and device info
* **Privacy-first testing:** Test and debug without affecting your main browser session
* **Clean environment:** Isolate testing from extensions, cookies, and cached data

## How It Works

When enabled for incognito, Jam works the same as in regular browsing:

* **Instant Replay** captures the last 2 minutes of user actions
* **Screen recording** documents the full bug reproduction
* **Network logs** show API calls, failed requests, and performance data
* **Console logs** capture JavaScript errors and warnings
* **Device information** includes browser, OS, and viewport details
