Today, we will tell you how to remove anything from the continue-watching section on Prime Video.

Clear Your Watch History
You can clear the watch history to completely reset the continue watching section of the Prime Video app, and then you can easily do that from the Prime Video website. Here is the step-by-step process to do it on your Prime Video account.
