You can remove titles from your Continue Watching row on Disney Plus by selecting the title and choosing a delete or remove option
Disney Plus keeps a row of shows and movies you have started but not finished. This row appears on your home screen and follows what you watch across all your devices. You can remove individual titles from this row without deleting them from your account or affecting your watch history elsewhere. The steps differ slightly depending on whether you are using a phone, tablet, computer, or streaming device.
Removing a title from Continue Watching does not delete the show or movie from Disney Plus — it only hides it from that particular row. You can still search for the title and watch it again at any time. Your progress in the title is also preserved, so if you remove it and later decide to watch again, you will resume from where you left off.
Key Takeaways
- You can remove titles from Continue Watching on any device — phone, tablet, computer, or streaming device — by finding the title and selecting a remove or delete option.
- Removing a title from Continue Watching does not erase it from Disney Plus or your watch history; it only hides it from that row on your home screen.
- On phones and tablets, you usually swipe or long-press the title card, then tap a remove button.
- On computers and some streaming devices, you right-click or hover over the title to reveal a menu with a remove option.

How to remove titles on a phone or tablet
On an iPhone, iPad, or Android device, open the Disney Plus app and navigate to your home screen. Find the Continue Watching row near the top. Locate the title you want to remove and long-press (hold your finger on) the title card for two to three seconds. A menu should appear with options including "Remove from Continue Watching" or similar wording. Tap that option, and the title will disappear from the row.
If a long-press does not work, try swiping left or right on the title card. Some versions of the Disney Plus app show a small X or trash icon when you swipe. Tap that icon to remove the title. The exact appearance of the menu varies depending on your device type and the version of the Disney Plus app you have installed, so look for any button or icon that suggests removal or deletion.
How to remove titles on a computer or web browser
On a Mac or Windows computer, go to the Disney Plus website and sign in to your account. On your home screen, locate the Continue Watching row. Hover your mouse over the title card you want to remove. A menu or set of icons should appear on the card — usually in the top right corner or overlaid on the image itself. Look for an X, three dots (menu icon), or a trash can icon.
Click that icon to open a menu. Select "Remove from Continue Watching" or a similar option. The title will then be removed from the row. If you do not see a menu appear when you hover, try right-clicking directly on the title card. A context menu may appear with removal options. The exact steps depend on your browser and which version of the Disney Plus website you are using.
How to remove titles on streaming devices
On a Roku, Amazon Fire Stick, Apple TV, or other streaming device, navigate to your home screen in the Disney Plus app. Find the Continue Watching row and highlight the title you want to remove using your remote. Press the options button on your remote — this is often labeled as a menu button, three dots, or similar symbol. A menu should appear with choices including "Remove from Continue Watching."
Select that option using your remote, and the title will be removed from the row. If the options button does not work, try pressing the back or select button to see if a different menu appears. Streaming device remotes vary widely, so consult your remote's manual if you are unsure which button opens the menu. Once you find the right button, the removal process is straightforward.
What happens to your watch progress when you remove a title
Removing a title from Continue Watching does not affect your watch progress. Disney Plus stores your position in every show and movie you have started, and that information remains in your account even after you remove the title from the Continue Watching row. If you search for the title later and decide to watch it again, you will be able to resume from exactly where you stopped.
Your watch history — the record of what you have watched — also remains unchanged. Removing a title from Continue Watching only hides it from that specific row on your home screen. It does not mark the title as unwatched, delete it from your library, or erase any record of your viewing.
Why you might want to remove titles from Continue Watching
The Continue Watching row can become cluttered if you start many titles but do not finish them. Removing titles you have abandoned or do not plan to finish makes the row more useful for finding shows and movies you actually want to resume. This is especially helpful if you share your Disney Plus account with family members and want to keep your home screen organized.
You might also remove a title if you accidentally started it, watched only a few seconds, and do not want it taking up space in the row. Removing it keeps your Continue Watching list focused on titles you genuinely intend to finish. Since you can always search for any title later, removing it from the row is a low-risk way to keep your home screen clean.
If you want to clear your entire Continue Watching row
Disney Plus does not offer a button to clear your entire Continue Watching row at once. You must remove titles one at a time using the methods described above. If you have many titles to remove, this can take a few minutes, but it is the only way to clear the row completely.
An alternative approach is to create a new profile on your Disney Plus account and use that profile for fresh watching. Your original profile's Continue Watching row will remain unchanged, and the new profile will start with an empty row. This approach is useful if you want to keep your old viewing history but start fresh with a clean home screen.
