What Are Netflix Profiles?
Netflix profiles allow different members of a household to have their own personalized Netflix experience. However, an account only supports five profiles, so to add a new one, you must first delete an existing profile. Deleting a Netflix profile is easy, permanent, and also deletes the profile’s viewing history. Deleting a profile on one device will remove it from all of your devices.
Remove Shows From Your Netflix Viewing History
If you just want to delete a few shows from your history, there’s no need to delete your entire profile. Simply remove individual shows in your account settings. To get to your account settings:
On a Mac or Windows PC: Select the Profiles button in the upper-right corner of the screen, and then select Account. On an iPhone: Tap the Menu button in the lower-right corner of the display and then tap Account.On an iPad or Android device: Tap the three horizontal lines in the upper-left corner of the screen, and then tap Account.
Once in account settings, scroll down to the My Profile section and select Viewing Activity. Remove items by selecting the Hide button, which looks like a circle with a line through it.
