This is a tutorial on how to Remove Items from Continue Watching on Netflix. Netflix, Inc. is an American entertainment services provider in Los Gatos, California, founded in 1997 by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph in Scotts Valley, California. As of April 2019, Netflix had over 148 million paid subscriptions worldwide, including 60 million in the United States, and over 154 million subscriptions total including free trials. It was started in California in 1997. It allows members to rent movies on DVD or Blu-ray, and also watch movies and TV shows online with a computer, game console, smartphone, tablet or Internet-connected TV.
Don’t know, but Netflix made it very difficult to delete or remove the viewing activity, especially for continue watching. Most of the time, you start watching a movie or series and we don’t like it, then we start watching something else. However, that movie or series stuck in our “Continue watching” list forever. There is no way Netflix give to remove it from that list straight away.
