To improve the user experience on the site (and the application), I’d like to suggest an improvement to the “Remove from history” popover. For each film viewed, you can click on the “check” icon and delete the play displayed (depending on the page), delete all plays or add an additional play.
By clicking on this icon, I expect to see the viewing history, not to delete all my viewings. And a miss click can happen so quickly (several times).
It would be nice to see the history of last plays (at least the last 5 for instance), and for each viewing: to be able to edit the date or delete it.
I don’t think it makes a lot of sense to be able to delete older plays individually from history?
Why would you do that? Usually you delete it because you accidentally pressed the wrong button or used the wrong day or time or something and it’s a recent watch.
Also this is the current one. Your current one only shows all or none xd. That seems wrong.
If you actually want to remove an old play why search for it in history when you can search for it on the website and navigate to the entry page to see all plays and remove whichever one you want.

First of all, I’d like to point out that in my image, I’m not proposing what’s on the left, which is the current state of the site when you’re in the “Recently Watched Movies” section of your profile. As I said, it depends on the page. On your history, you have the “Only this play” button, but not everywhere. My suggestion (which can be improved) is the right part of the image.

In my opinion, it depends on individual needs. But what you’ve pointed out proves the usefulness of an “Edit” button already. Rather than deleting a play, we could simply update the date, which would avoid making a certain number of extra clicks, or deleting ALL plays by mistake (which has happened to me several times).
The point of my proposal is to save the user time. Want to know when you’ve watched a movie? Search for it, click on the icon, and you’ll get a list of viewing dates directly (without clicking on the film, then on “All Plays”, which takes you 2 levels further). At the same time, it would be useful to be able to manage your viewings there (edit, delete). The “Delete all plays”, “No” and “Add an additional play” buttons would still be there.
The fact that you can so easily delete all the views of a movie with a simple button (without a confirmation pop-in) is dangerous for me. And when you like to keep an exhaustive history of all your viewings of a movie, it’s scary to lose it all with a miss click.
This is an interesting idea, but it seems like it might be too much in that popup. A better approach might be an icon to view your history for that specific item. Then you can remove individual plays as needed from that resulting page. This is how we handle it on the mobile apps, there is a separate icon/link to view history easily for an item.
