How to clear Netflix history

It is normal to see some series or movies on Netflix that we do not want others to see, especially if we share our account or devices at home with family or friends. So to do a good cleaning of the history of our account is the key to avoid it and, although at first it was not possible to do so, some time ago you can delete the content that we have saved after having seen some documentaries, chapters or films.

So, if you want to forget about being worried about if someone sees it, you just have to pay attention to the following steps that we explain in detail in this article so you can learn how to clear the Netflix history easily.

Steps to follow:

Therefore, enter from the browser of your computer or tablet to the Netflix website and log in to the account where you are going to edit the content.

Once you are in, you must select the icon of your user profile that will appear at the top right of your screen and click on the option of Your account . Then another page will open in which you will see the section on My profile .
