Quibi's subscription-based video streaming service already has a significant amount of content – over 100 shows. That's a lot of content vying for your attention as a new subscriber. 

To help you parse out what to watch, Quibi uses its "For You" feed to promote certain shows on its home screen, which is the default view when you start the app. 

If you have no interest in a particular show, you can hide it from your feed so you won't need to see it over and over when you load or navigate the app.

Keep in mind the show is not permanently removed from your app. If you later decide you want to see the show, you can find it by tapping "Browse" at the bottom of the screen and browsing or searching for it. 

Here's how to hide shows on the mobile streaming platform.
