Netflix has become one of the streaming platforms most used by all Internet users. Over time, this platform always reinvents itself and offers new content to all its followers,which are currently billions worldwide.
Despite its great popularity, there are still many users who use borrowed or hacked accounts, which not only harms the company, but also the account owner. The reason? Netflix may change search recommendations based on what shows or movies other people are enjoying on the main account.
However, there is a native method, unknown to almost all users, which allows you to see the history of all the content consumed on the platform. To run it, you only need a computer< /b> to access one’s account and follow the steps that Infobae will show below.
This way you can see the Netflix history
When a user has watched, for example, all seasons of Eliteor the same ones from Breaking Bad, what Netflix usually does is hide that series as if nothing had been seen; which means that you have to use the search to see Elite again.
And the truth is that Netflix can score a good point here if compared to other platforms , except for Amazon Prime Video which has something similar, as both offer the possibility to see the list of content that has been played. This is how you can do it:
1. You have to go to netflix.com.
2. Once you have started the session, you have to leave the mouse pointer over the Profile to activate it.
3. Tap on the Account option.

4. And now at the bottom, in Profile and parental control you have to extend the profile to click on Viewing activity.
It can also be done from the active profile of those you have and go through this viewing activity link. Even from that page you can click to go to the episode or movie played or see the votes given.
An interesting way to know everything that has been played in recent days and thus recover a special episode of a favorite series that Netflix had hidden with its preferences.

Two tricks to find content quickly on Netflix
1. Manually edit the ‘Keep watching’ option
This option will be useful, since you can edit the titles of the Continue watching option and thus eliminate what is no longer interesting, so that Netflix never remembers it. It will also help you find what you want to keep watching faster, so that’s really a big plus.
From the website or with the latest version of the Netflix application, simply place the cursor over the carousel (list of options).and then hover over the row title.
On the mobile device, touch Menu and you will see what options they have. Select Remove from row.
Another option is to remove titles from Watch History so they are also removed from Continue Watching .

2. Using the ‘My list’ function
It’s one of the classics, but it’s the best way to have everything that matters so it doesn’t fall into oblivion.
While searching for the new movie to watch, or simply because the platform recommends through different carousels, it is common to find the movies of interest to watch, but at this point you cannot start. It’s best to add them to the list without fail.
This list is the first to visit when you don’t know what to watch and are looking for a new movie or series for a given time. Many people will be surprised at the things they forgot to see.
