Method 1: The Sneaky "Watch to the End" Trick
This one's my favorite because it feels like you're outsmarting the system. Find that offending show, the one that haunts your "Continue Watching" dreams. Begin watching it.
Now, here's the sneaky part: fast forward to the very end. Like, the absolute last second. Let the credits roll, let the music swell, let the screen fade to black.
Amazon Prime Video, in its infinite wisdom, will then think you've actually finished the show. Poof! It's gone from your "Continue Watching" list like a magician's rabbit.
Method 2: The "Pretend You're on the Website" Workaround
Sometimes, the iPad app just doesn't want to cooperate. It's like that one friend who always insists on doing things their own way. We'll just have to use Amazon's website, where the magic happens!
Grab your iPad and open Safari (or your favorite web browser). Head over to the Amazon Prime Video website, not the app.
You have to sign in to your account. Find the section labeled "Continue Watching". Each show should have a little "Watchlist" icon.
Now, the moment you've been waiting for. Click the"Watchlist" icon again. It'll give you the option to remove the show. Select "Remove from Watchlist".
Do this for each unwanted show. Refresh your Amazon Prime Video app on your iPad, and voilà! A clean slate.
Method 3: The Nuclear Option (Clearing Watch History)
Okay, this one's a bit more extreme, like using a bazooka to swat a fly. Only use this if you're truly desperate and all other methods have failed.
Go to the Amazon website (again, not the app). Find your account settings, look for "Watching Activity". Then you’ll see all the videos you’ve ever watched.
From there, you can remove individual titles or even clear your entire watch history. But be warned: this will wipe out all your viewing data, so you'll lose all your progress in every show.
After that, the "Continue Watching" list will be empty. This can also take effect on your other devices. I hope you don't mind starting over the shows!
Rejoice in Your Newly Clean List!
Congratulations! You've successfully vanquished those pesky shows from your "Continue Watching" list. Now you can enjoy your binge-watching experience without being haunted by unfinished episodes.
Remember, a clean "Continue Watching" list is a happy "Continue Watching" list. Now, go forth and stream with joy!
