Finally, Netflix has also implemented on its TV apps the ability to remove content from the “Keep Watching” list. It is found, as you can see in the animation shared by Netflix itself, on the page of the series or film along with the various other commands, such as language and subtitle selection, rating, additional info and more. If you need more information, including procedures for each platform, you can head to the dedicated Netflix support page.
The announcement dates back to a few days ago, and the functionality has already been available for some time on the app for Android and iOS. Netflix said distribution has already begun for everyone globally, and we actually have direct feedback on the app for NVIDIA SHIELD (hence Android TV). It appears to be a server-side update.
There are tricks to get rid of content that doesn’t interest you even before the feature arrives on the mobile app: the most trivial is to simply use fast forward until the end of the movie – or the last episode of a TV series – and just look at the last few seconds of the credits; but it is certainly not the most comfortable solution in the world, and then you risk “spoiling” something for which inspiration could come later.
The other method is even more laborious: you have to go to the official website, preferably from the desktop, log in, go to your account settings (top right menu), open the profile section, search for content viewing activities and remove what you want to remove from the list.
