Don't watch the FreeVee channel on Roku
1. Once you watch (or even stop watching) anything, it stays in your watch list forever, and there is no way to remove it. Amazon says there is a remove function on their own app but it is not availa...

I did notice that although does not seem a way to remove a show from "Continue Watching" in Freevee with a remote button, that I was able to just launch the show from the Continue Watching and then Fast Forward all the end. That seemed to remove it from my Continue Watching screen.
Not the most elegant way, but does seem to do the trick.
I do not remember seeing a WatchList in Freevee though. Regarding my WatchList in Amazon Prime Video, I believe I just log in to Prime Video and when I remove content there, it removes it from my Roku device. I recall a "Remove from Watchlist" option a few days ago when noticed the *button no longer worked on the device itself.
As for the Search results issue, you are correct there. Many times shows up as available in the Roku Search to only be unavailable when you go to Freevee. A few channels are guilty of this and not updating their availability. (not even sure if this is channels' faults or merely a sync issue between all the different servers involved in the Search feature updating.)
I am not an Amazon Prime member, so it may work differently if you are. If you add the FreeVee channel on Roku, the only options are Watch Now or Watch From Beginning. It may remove a movie if you watch it to the end, but I mostly watch TV series with multiple episodes, and if you watch through to the last episode, it stays in the list and just recycles back to Season 1 Episode 1.
Tried just forwarding the the last episode, but then it just recycles to that episode, but it is still in the list and then if you say Watch Now if just shows commercials then goes back to the list, and if you again say Watch Now, you just get different commercials and loop back.
This app is a piece of junk and they should be ashamed of it. Roku should probably dump it.
What do I expect from "free!"? I don't expect over the top fancy features on apps like this one. I use and enjoy as much as possible.
My paid subscriptions are not in the same league. I expect far more from them in content as well as the best features around. If I don't get what I want-bye! And I sharply limit whatever personal info given out to any and all apps to "need to know" only. For freebies, fake name, throwaway email address, and other info only. For paid apps by myself, reloadable card only for payment.
People should learn not to be so honest and open about the real you-and your bank account.
