Steps to delete the recently watched on Firestick:
Deleting the recently watched list on a Firestick cannot be done in one go. Clearing the entire list with just one step is not a feature that is introduced yet. So users will have to remove the channels or apps one by one. To remove an app from the recent list, hover over the app icon. Now press the button with three lines or the hamburger icon on your Firestick remote. When you do so, a small list will appear at the bottom right corner of the screen. Navigate using the buttons on your remote and select the “Remove from Recent” option. This will remove the app that you selected.
Now if you want the entire list cleared, you will have to do it manually, and one by one. Keep repeating the same steps for all the apps that you want to delete from recently watched on the Firestick. After you have removed the apps that you wanted, new ones will be added as you keep on using the Firestick device.
