Clear your entire Continue Watching list from your account settings

Disney Plus does not offer a single button to wipe your entire Continue Watching list at once. Instead, you remove shows and movies one at a time from the list itself, or you can clear your viewing history through your account settings — which will empty Continue Watching but also reset recommendations across your profile.

The fastest method depends on whether you want to keep your watch history for recommendations or start completely fresh. If you only want to hide a few titles, remove them individually. If you want a clean slate, clear your entire viewing history from Account Settings.

Key Takeaways

  • You can remove individual titles from Continue Watching by clicking the three-dot menu on each title and selecting "Remove from Continue Watching."
  • Clearing your entire viewing history through Account Settings will empty Continue Watching but will also reset all personalized recommendations on your profile.
  • The steps differ slightly between the Disney Plus website, mobile app, and streaming devices like Roku or Fire TV.
  • Removing a title from Continue Watching does not delete it from your library or prevent you from watching it again later.

Remove individual titles from Continue Watching on the Disney Plus app

Open the Disney Plus app on your phone or tablet and go to your profile. Tap the Continue Watching section to see all titles in progress. Find the show or movie you want to remove, then tap the three-dot menu icon (or long-press the title on some devices) and select "Remove from Continue Watching."

The title will disappear from your Continue Watching list when ready. You can still find it in your library or search for it later if you want to resume watching. Removing it does not affect the show or movie itself — it only hides it from that specific list.

Remove titles from Continue Watching on the Disney Plus website

Log into DisneyPlus.com on a computer or mobile browser. Hover over or tap the title in your Continue Watching section. A three-dot menu should appear in the corner of the title card. Click or tap it and select "Remove from Continue Watching."

If you do not see a menu icon, try right-clicking the title card (on desktop) or long-pressing it (on mobile browser). The option should appear in a context menu. After you remove it, refresh the page to confirm it has left your list.

Clear your entire viewing history from Account Settings

To clear all of Continue Watching at once, log into your Disney Plus account and go to Account Settings. On the website, click your profile icon in the top right, then select "Account." On the mobile app, tap your profile icon and choose "Account Settings." Look for a section labeled "Viewing History" or "Privacy."

Select "Clear Viewing History" or "Delete All" (the exact wording varies by device). Disney Plus will ask you to confirm. Once you confirm, your entire Continue Watching list will be empty, and your recommendations will reset. This action cannot be undone, so use it only if you are certain you want to start fresh.

Clear Continue Watching on streaming devices like Roku and Fire TV

On Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, or other streaming devices, open Disney Plus and go to your profile. Navigate to Settings or Account. Look for "Viewing History" or "Clear History." Select it and confirm the action. The steps are similar across most devices, though the menu layout may differ slightly.

If you cannot find a viewing history option on your device, try removing titles individually instead. Go to Continue Watching, highlight each title, press the menu button (usually three dots or a star icon), and select the remove option. This method takes longer but works on all devices.

What happens when you remove a title from Continue Watching

Removing a title from Continue Watching does not delete your progress. If you search for the show or movie later and start watching it again, Disney Plus will remember where you left off — but it will not automatically add it back to Continue Watching until you watch more of it.

Clearing your entire viewing history, however, does reset your recommendations. Disney Plus will stop suggesting shows based on what you have watched before. Your recommendations will rebuild as you watch new content, so you may see generic suggestions for a while after you clear your history.

Manage Continue Watching without clearing it completely

If you want to keep some titles in Continue Watching but hide others, remove them one at a time using the three-dot menu method. This keeps your viewing history intact for recommendations while cleaning up the list.

You can also create a separate profile for different family members. Each profile has its own Continue Watching list and viewing history, so one person's list will not clutter another's. To add a profile, go to Account Settings, select "Manage Profiles," and create a new one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does removing a title from Continue Watching delete my progress?

No. Removing a title only hides it from the Continue Watching list. Your progress is saved in Disney Plus's system. If you search for the title later and resume watching, it will pick up where you left off.

Will clearing my viewing history affect my password or account settings?

No. Clearing your viewing history only removes the record of what you have watched. Your password, payment method, profile names, and all other account settings remain unchanged.

Can I undo clearing my viewing history?

No. Once you confirm clearing your viewing history, it cannot be recovered. If you only want to remove a few titles, remove them individually instead.

Why does my Continue Watching list show titles I do not remember watching?

Continue Watching includes any title you have started, even if you only watched a few seconds. If someone else on your account watched something, it will appear on the shared Continue Watching list unless you use separate profiles.

Can I clear Continue Watching on just one device?

No. Your Continue Watching list is tied to your account, not to a specific device. Removing a title or clearing your history will affect all devices where you are logged in with that account.
