Using the app or online, I can no longer search my past purchases by keyword or name. My only options are to sort by “recommended”, “purchase date”, or “purchase count”. That’s not helpful at all. I’ve bought thousands of items. All I know is what it’s called. What am I missing? How do I search past purchases by name or keyword? No help in filters as all that shows is category.

I’m sure someone has asked this before, but I bought a gift on a shared account that I don’t want other users to see (it’s for a white elephant exchange, so not exactly sensitive but still want to maintain the surprise). Just wanted to know if I could remove some/all the items there if I needed to.
Thanks!
Yes, look at your order history and, for the items you wish to hide, click on a link that says “archive order.“ I don’t see it in the mobile app, but I do see it in the lower left corner of each “Your Orders” listing in a web browser. You can also click to view your browsing history and remove individual items from your history.
This video explains how to remove an item from your "Buy It Again" page on Amazon:

-
go to your recommendations page on your laptop
-
at the top of the page there is a button that says "Improve your recommendations," click it
-
click on the slider of the item you don't want to see on your "buy it again" page
This should remove it from your buy it again list. Doing this and archiving the order in the "orders" page should hide your items quite well.
