Choose whether you mean preference or restriction
Someone who dislikes a film may want fewer similar recommendations. A parent may instead need to restrict access to a programme. These are different tasks. Before pressing a feedback button, identify which outcome matters, because a personal recommendation preference should not be mistaken for an access-control decision on a shared account.
Read Amazon’s feedback scope
Prime Video’s recommendation help says Thumbs down stops the title being recommended, while the title can still be found through search. Feedback is personal to each profile and does not alter other profiles’ recommendations. Kids profiles cannot submit this feedback, and some older devices may not display the buttons. Amazon suggests the website or a newer device where necessary.
Correct an accidental preference deliberately
For example, a viewer who accidentally dislikes a favourite series can select the same feedback button again to undo it or choose the opposite preference, as Amazon documents. Check the intended profile before making the correction. A changed recommendation row on another household profile would not be a useful test because the feedback is not shared across those profiles.
Use appropriate controls for access concerns
If the original requirement was to prevent a child from watching a mature title, review the service’s documented viewing and profile restrictions separately. Do not declare the programme blocked because its recommendation tile disappeared. Conversely, finding a disliked programme through search is consistent with Amazon’s stated behaviour. Record the actual button and profile when reporting an unexpected recommendation result.
Questions, answered
Should a disliked film disappear from search?
Amazon says it remains searchable even though it is no longer recommended.
