  • To view and delete your Amazon Prime watch history, go to the Settings page of Prime Video.
  • You can only view and delete your Amazon Prime watch history on a web browser, not the Prime Video app.
  • You can delete titles from your Continue Watching carousel by clicking the Edit button.

Amazon Prime keeps track of the movies and shows you've watched so that it can recommend other titles you may be interested in. It's a helpful feature in theory, but if you share an account with someone that has different tastes than you, or if you watch a few episodes of a show before deciding it isn't for you, it can lead to some irrelevant recommendations.

There's a way to remove titles from your Amazon Prime watch history as well as your Continue Watching list. Here's everything you need to know.
