I've found the heuristics streaming apps use to determine whether or not to show "play next episode" or "continue watching" to be very hit or miss (sometimes due to a bad heuristic, other times due to a given episode having an unusual end point). Providing an accessible means for the user to quickly course correct when this heuristic inevitably breaks would be handy.
As a concrete example, I frequently find Funimation's app recommends I "continue watching" an episode that I'd consider already completed, and unfortunately the quickest way to "fix" instead of backing back out and browsing around is to frantically scrub through to the end so it auto-plays to the next episode.
