Why can't there be a simple delete button like on sky Q to delete continued programs instead having to fast forward each program until the end and trying to avoid start watching another program it gives you suggestion that you don't want to watch then after all the messing the bloody program is still there on your list so frustrating any simple answers

Hi @jepp9272 

 

It's not ovey clear what your issue is. But there is nothing to delete sky Glass and Stream have no local recording. However voice control is your friend here, you can say "skip to X minutes" etc.

 

If you clarify what your issue is the community will do it's best to assist, remembering we are fellow customers not Sky.

Hi @jepp9272  The lack of a delete function similar to Netflix or Apple TV is probably my biggest complaint with the whole streaming platform.

 

Depending on the App you watched from there are so many different ways to remove programmes from CW. Some you have to do on your TV and others on your Laptop etc.  I made myself a list to help me remember in the future. Hopefully this will help you as well.  Some may be a little out of date but I find most of the time they work.

 

Do on Glass TV:

Apple TV - select from Up Next list with a LONG press / remove

Netflix - Select from CW / remove from CW on next page

Sky, Discovery, ITVX, Disney & Amazon Prime - run programme to credits and allow to run to the end.  If a series do the same with the final episode of the series.  (It may take a while to disappear)

My5 - Go to settings and select Clear Watch History

 

Do on laptop:

BBC iPlayer  - CW / Manage full list (on right of screen) / remove

Ch4 / CW - go to My4 > / edit / select then remove

Paramount - Hover over programme and untick  

Prime - If running it through the end didn’t work then TRY going to Amazon > Prime Video and select the CW rail. Hover over programme and a dropdown will appear where you can select delete from CW.  

 

Sometimes it can take a while for the programme to disappear and on other occasions they stubbornly remain. It's a bit of a lottery.

 

Good luck, I hope this helps.

Agreed, it is very annoying that there is not a delete option on the continue tab. I'm hopeful that some time in the future Sky will give us this most basic functionality.
