As we all know Facebook recommends videos based on your interests and you watch them. On the other hand, you can also check the Facebook watch history via the tab, which lets you know what you’ve watched previously. The Watch tab on Facebook lets you view and save the video for your future.
Sometimes it also happens that the video or the content that Facebook recommends, might not align with your interests. And you come across the videos that you don’t like. In such scenarios, you can delete Facebook watch history on mobile and desktop so that it will reset the Facebook suggestion algorithm for you and prevent Facebook from recommending similar content.
