How to delete your Amazon Prime Video Watch History

OTT platforms are leading the entertainment industry into a new era and one of the forerunners in the market is Amazon’s very own Prime Video Service. For those of you who don’t know, Prime Video is Amazon’s video streaming service that works on a subscription model. What this means is that interested users can watch all the content on the Prime Video library for a monthly or annual subscription fee. The content can be viewed as many times as the user desires and can also be downloaded for offline viewing.

The way Prime Video works is actually a bit different, based on the country you are in. If you are living in the United States, United Kingdom, and Germany, you can use the Prime Video service without actually buying a full Amazon Prime subscription, whereas, in countries like Australia, Canada, France, India, Turkey, and Italy, you will need a full Amazon Prime subscription to use the Prime Video service. At the moment, the Prime Video service is available everywhere in the world, with the exception of Mainland China, Iran, North Korea, and Syria.

Once you get hold of a Prime Video membership, you will end up watching a ton of content, and whenever you watch something on the platform, it is recorded under your watch history. Now, there is no real need to clear the watch history, but nevertheless, Amazon allows users to view their view history and even delete content on that list. If you are someone who wants to do this, this tutorial is for you.

Let’s take a look at how you can delete your Amazon Prime Video watch history.

Step 1. Open the web browser on your PC and head to the Prime Video website.

 

 

Step 2. On the home page, click on the profile icon at the top right hand side.

 

 

Step 3. From the drop down menu, click on the ‘Account and Settings’ option.

 

 

Step 4. You will now be prompted to login using your Amazon credentials. Go ahead and do the same.

 

 

Step 5. Once you log in, on the resulting screen, click on the ‘Watch History’ tab on the Account settings window.

 

 

Step 6. You will now see your watch history and once you locate something you want to delete, click on the ‘Delete Episodes from Watch History’ option next to the title.

 

 

The title will now be removed from your watch history. Now, what you need to understand is that you can still watch the title when you browse for it on Prime Video. This feature only removes content from your watch history.
