Incognito, and clearing your history and recents
Watch without leaving a trace, or wipe what is already there, across every playlist at once.
Both live in Settings, under Privacy.
Incognito
Turn it on and what you watch is not added to recents, to continue watching or to your history. Turn it off and normal behavior resumes. Nothing already recorded is removed by switching it on.
Clear history
One action wipes recents and playback history across every playlist on the device, after asking you to confirm. Favorites, collections and your layout are untouched.
| What you want | What to use |
|---|---|
| This one film leaves no trace | Incognito, before you play it |
| Remove what is already there | Clear history |
| Hide it from everyone permanently | The Private profile |
History is also part of cloud sync. Clearing it on one device clears what has been shared with your other devices too.
