Netflix Hacks You Probably Never Knew

Who doesn’t love Netflix these days? It is really hard to remember what life was like without it? However, even with the convenience of having access to and endless supply of titles at your fingertips, there are still little tips and tricks that you should know. Here are some Netflix hacks you probably never knew.

View Shows from Other Countries– If there are shows or movies that you want to watch, but they are only available in other countries, there is still a way for you to watch them. There is a browser extension called Hola. What Hola does is it uses a VPN to make Netflix believe you are in a different country.

Allow Netflix to Choose What You Watch– If you just can’t decide what to watch tonight, let them help you choose. Flix Roulette is here to assist you. All you have to do is enter the genre of movie you want to watch, like romance, drama, action, etc. and click on spin. Flix Roulette will make suggestions for you. It also works if you want to watch TV shows instead of movies.

Locate the Movies Picked by the Critics– Want to know what movies the movie critics are choosing? Just use instantwatcher.com and utilize the NYT critics pick filter.

Delete Your Viewing History– If you don’t want everyone in the house to see what you are watching, just delete your viewing history. How? It is easy since all you have to do is sign into your account, click viewing activity and delete any shows you don’t want seen.

Make Things Easier with Shortcuts– If you watch Netflix on your computer, there are keyboard shortcuts you can use to make things easier. The spacebar will pause the show, while the enter key will play it. Clicking the letter F will make your screen full screen viewing and ESC will go back to normal screen. To rewind the show you are watching, hold the shift key with the left arrow key and to fast forward the show, hold the shift key with the right arrow key.
