Question on Android Default Browser Incognito Mode

[Nazran]

Android 4.3 browser (not the Android Chrome browser) question. I know I can sign in to google when I am incognito but when the browser is closed the session is logged off. Is there a way to have yourself always logged in to google even if you are exclusively browsing incognito mode? Thanks

You don't actually remain signed in as far as the server is concerned. As soon as the session times out (default is 20 minutes, but it can be changed - it's "since we last heard from that browser"), you're no longer connected. If, the next time you connect, the server reads a "keep me connected from session 12345" cookie, you're "still connected".

Since incognito mode destroys all history and cookies when you close the browser, there's no "keep me connected" cookie, so you're not "still connected".

You get your choice of column A or column B, but you can't have one of each.
