How to archive orders from the Amazon app so they don't appear
Since we can't archive orders from the Amazon app so they don't appear, we're going to show you how to do it from the web version.
The process is fairly simple. All you have to do is log in with your Amazon account and go to the list with the orders you have made. You will see that at the bottom of each of the orders there is a button that says Archive order You just have to click on it and, after accepting the message confirmation that appears in the image, the order will no longer appear in the main list.
You can archive both orders that are still in progress and those that you have already received. In fact, the option to archive orders can be a way to "clean up" the tray of placed orders a bit so that you can find the ones that you are waiting for or those that may need a return a little more easily.But keep in mind that you can archive a maximum of 500 orders, so if you use Amazon very often we do not recommend that you archive all the orders you make .
How to Delete Amazon Purchase History
If you don't want to archive an order but are wondering how to delete Amazon purchase history, we're sorry to say no it's possible.
Once we have placed an order on Amazon, that order will be registered in our account forever. We can hide it as we explained in the previous section, but we can always access them if, within our account, we go to My archived orders There we can see all the orders that you have hidden in the regular list, but they will not be completely deleted.
Therefore, in the event that you share your Amazon account with other people, you must bear in mind that your privacy when making purchases will never be total. If the other person knows how to handle the web a bit, they will always have the possibility of finding what you have recently bought. Therefore, if you want to keep it completely hidden, the only options you have are either create a new account for more private orders or ask another person in these cases to make the purchase for you.
