How To Delete Watched Video History On Facebook App

Ever Feel Like Facebook's Watching Your Binge-Watching?

Let's be honest. Sometimes my Facebook feed feels like a judgey best friend. It knows too much. Especially what ridiculous cat videos I watched at 3 AM.

And who wants that kind of scrutiny? No one, that's who. So, let's liberate your viewing history, shall we?

Dive into the Activity Log

First, tap those three little lines. You know, the menu thingy in the bottom right (or top right, depending on your phone's mood). It's like Facebook's secret handshake.

Scroll down. Keep scrolling. Almost there... Find "Settings & Privacy". It's usually hiding in plain sight. Classic Facebook.

A new menu pops open. Now, pick "Settings".

Again, scroll. Find "Activity Log". Think of it as your digital diary, except way more public... unless we intervene.

Video History: The Scene of the Crime (Er, Entertainment)

Inside the Activity Log, look for "Logged Actions and Other Activity". It sounds super official, I know. But trust me, it's the right place.

Now you'll see a bunch of options. Like, a lot of options. Find "Videos You've Watched". There she is!

One by One, or All at Once? The Choice is Yours!

Here, you'll see a list of all the videos you've watched. Don't judge yourself. We've all been there.

To delete them individually, tap the three dots next to each video. Then hit "Delete". Poof! Gone. Like that awkward moment never happened.

Feeling ambitious? There's a "Clear Video Watch History" button. It's usually at the top. Use it wisely. And maybe with a little bit of glee.

Unpopular Opinion: Sometimes I Want Facebook to Forget

Look, I know. Data is power. Blah, blah, blah. But sometimes, I just want to erase my digital footprint. Especially when it comes to my questionable taste in reality TV.

Don't get me wrong, I love a good train wreck. But I don't need Facebook reminding me of it every five minutes. You know?

Alternative Approach: The Nuclear Option

Okay, maybe not nuclear. But close. You can also limit Facebook's data collection in general. Dig through the privacy settings. There are tons of toggles and switches. Be careful, though!

Just remember, the more you restrict, the less "personalized" your experience will be. Which, honestly, might not be such a bad thing. Right?

It is, after all, your data. You get to decide who sees what, including Facebook. Take back control!

Is it REALLY Gone?

Here's the thing. Deleting your history from the app is one thing. What Facebook does with that data behind the scenes is another. Who really knows what happens to our data?

But hey, at least your feed won't be haunted by that embarrassing ASMR video you watched last week. Small victories, people. Small victories.

Embrace Your Inner Privacy Ninja

So, there you have it. A (hopefully) painless guide to deleting your watched video history on Facebook. Now go forth and binge-watch responsibly! And maybe use an incognito tab next time. Just a thought.

Remember, staying in control of your data, especially on platforms like Facebook, is essential in this day and age. Happy deleting!

Go enjoy your newfound digital freedom! And maybe watch something slightly less embarrassing next time. Just kidding... mostly.
