Happy streaming, my friend!
If you used to sit around watching cable TV, you know how much easier it is now to try out new shows thanks to streaming services like Netflix and Hulu. You don’t have to wait for a specific network or time slot anymore. Both Netflix and Hulu offer a mix of their own original shows along with older and current shows that come after the season finishes airing or right before a new season starts. So, whether you want to catch up on your favorites or try something new, there’s plenty of content on these platforms.
But sometimes, you come across a show or movie that you absolutely hate. It might make you uncomfortable or offend your sensibilities, or it might trick you into thinking it’s something else entirely. We’ve all been let down by our entertainment choices. And unlike traditional cable services where you can forget about a bad show, Netflix and Hulu won’t let you forget. If you didn’t finish a bad series or movie, it’ll keep appearing in your Netflix or Hulu interface, showing up in the continue watching section and recommended movies.
Whether you’re embarrassed or simply want to remove a show or movie from your history, many people want to delete specific pieces of entertainment from their viewing history. If that’s something you’re interested in, you’re not alone. Whether you’re browsing on Hulu or Netflix, let’s find out how to delete your browsing history from both streaming services to reset your viewing history and start fresh.
Deleting Your History on Netflix
If you want to delete select items or your entire history on Netflix, it’s quick and easy to do. There’s just one small catch: you need to use the desktop version of the app and access your profile history. Like Hulu, Netflix uses a profile system, so you’ll need to choose the correct profile from the menu to clear its history.
Once you’re on the main Netflix page, go to the top-right corner of the screen and hover over your profile image. From the drop-down menu, select “Account” to go to your account settings. This is where you’ll find all sorts of options and settings you might not be familiar with if you don’t access Netflix through your computer or browser often. At the bottom of the menu, you’ll see “Viewing History.” Click on this option to see your profile’s viewing history.
Deleting Select Titles
Your viewing history is a complete list of every movie and episode you’ve watched, arranged in reverse chronological order. Deleting a single entry is really easy. Find the title you want to remove, click the circle with a line icon next to it, and it will be deleted from your history. Within 24 hours, you’ll stop seeing recommendations based on that title, so you can completely erase any trace of it from your account.
If you want to delete an episode of a TV series, you’ll need to remove each episode individually. However, Netflix makes it easy to remove the entire series with just one extra click. After deleting a single episode from your history, you can click “Hide Series” on the right side of the list. This will automatically delete the viewing history of every episode in that series with a single click. It’s a simple way to remove a show you didn’t like from your history and recommendations.
Erasing Your Entire History
Sadly, there’s no quick and simple method to erase all your watched shows and movies on Netflix without closing your account. However, if you’re up for starting fresh, removing your profile from your history offers a fairly straightforward way to clear everything and start anew. It allows you to concentrate on creating a brand new profile with fresh recommendations.
To get rid of your profile, first, you gotta hover over your profile picture at the top of the screen. Then, click on “Manage Profiles.” This will take you to a page where you can select the profile you want to delete. Look for the little pencil icon on top of each profile and click on the one you want to get rid of. From the list of options that comes up, choose “Delete Profile.” Now, go back to the “Manage Profiles” page. There, you can easily add a new profile by using the option on the right side of your current profile list. With your fresh new profile, you can customize your settings and get personalized recommendations without carrying over any of your old account’s baggage.
Clearing Your Viewing History on Hulu
When it comes to deleting your viewing history on Hulu, things work a little differently compared to Netflix. Instead of going to your computer, you’ll need to grab your smartphone or tablet and log in using the Hulu mobile app. It may seem strange, but Hulu really wants you to use their mobile app, so let’s dive into how to clear your history using it.
To get started, you’ll want to choose “Keep Watching” from the main screen of the app. If you’re using the swipe gestures, it’s just a quick swipe away from your lineup. Once you tap on “Keep Watching,” you’ll see a list of all the content you’ve been watching online. If you want to delete a show or movie from your viewing history on that profile, all you have to do is select the “Remove” option below the show. Then, just follow the prompt that pops up on your screen. This will take the show off your viewing history and reset your progress on every episode in the series.
Hey there! Did you know that Hulu has a feature that allows you to delete multiple shows at once? If you’re using the mobile app, all you have to do is scroll to the bottom of the “Keep Watching” panel and select “All Watch History.” From there, you can choose which shows you want to delete using the handy checkbox option. Pretty convenient, right? Now, I couldn’t find this option on my profile, but Hulu insists that it’s there, so I’ll take their word for it.
Now, let’s talk about Netflix. Sometimes it’s hard to tell if you’ll enjoy a show or movie just by reading the description. We’ve all been there, trying out a recommendation only to realize it’s not really our thing. No worries, though! Both Netflix and Hulu make it easy to hide that content from your viewing history. Whether you’re using a desktop browser or a smartphone app, you can log into your account and clear your history without any hassle.
So, if you accidentally start a show that you’re not interested in, no need to panic. Just head over to your profile settings and clear your history to get your Netflix or Hulu account back to its normal state. It’s that simple!
