You’ll need these Netflix secret codes to get through the rest of 2020
Think you’ve watched all the movies on Netflix? With the secret Netflix codes listed below, chances are you’ll never leave your couch.
As many of us Netflix users know, the streaming service is rather vague when it comes to listing genres. What about when we want to get specific and watch a B-movie horror flick from the 80s?
The problem with Netflix is the difficulty of searching for subgenres; Netflix only recommends movies & genres based on what was previously watched. Netflix uses an algorithm that collects data on what users are viewing, which is extremely convenient for them – but what about us movie lovers?
Finding your own subgenre can be tough. Thanks to Telegraph, there’s an easy solution. All hail the internet, for once again saving the day!
Next time you log in to your Netflix account enter “www.netflix.com/browse/genre/XXXX” into your browser’s address bar. Replace that “XXXX” with the series of numbers listed next to your desired subgenre below. Here are the codes – enjoy!
