Google TV is a great platform for watching movies and TV shows, but it can be difficult to keep them hidden from the search engine. Here are some tips to help:
- Make sure all of your devices are connected to the same network. This will help keep your movies and TV shows safe from being found by Google.
- Use a VPN service to encrypt your traffic. This will help keep your data private and safe from prying eyes.
- Use a file manager that can hide files and folders from Google TV. This will make it difficult for the search engine to find and index your content.
- Use an add-on or extension that hides movie or TV show titles and descriptions from Google TV search results. This will make it harder for people to find what they’re looking for on their Google TVs without having to type in specific information!
The Google TV home screen is focused on recommendations and making it easy for you to pick up where you left off. Sometimes, though, the “Continue Watching” row isn’t super helpful. Thankfully, you can remove titles from the row.
The “Continue Watching” row shows movies and TV shows that you started watching on supported streaming services. However, you might not intend to continue watching, or maybe you started something by accident. But now, in July of 2021, Google has finally made it possible to remove things from this row.

First, make sure that you’re on the main “For You” tab and scroll down to the “Continue Watching” row.
Highlight the title that you want to remove and hold down the “OK” or “Select” button on your remote for a few seconds.
A menu will appear with two options. Select “Hide.”
The title will now be gone from the “Continue Watching” row!
For a long time, it wasn’t possible to remove titles from Continue Watching. We’re happy to see that you can finally do it. Now, you can keep your Google TV home screen a little tidier.
