The 5 Changes Netflix Needs to Make to Keep Me Subscribed

For the astir part, I similar Netflix and what it has to offer, but it has felt stagnant to maine for immoderate time. It isn't conscionable astir content, but features, too. If I'm to proceed subscribing to Netflix, it'll request to marque these changes.

5 Bring Back Dead Features and Add New Ones

Did you cognize Netflix had a diagnostic that randomly picked a amusement oregon movie based connected your recommendations? Neither did I. It was called "Surprise Me," and it definite amazed maine erstwhile I learned astir it and realized I would've liked it. Netflix needs a shuffle fastener again!

When I subscribe to Netflix, portion of my anticipation is that it gets amended to usage implicit time. So, I'm bushed of getting caller features and having them taken distant oregon not getting thing caller whatsoever. Surprise Me? Gone. User reviews? Gone. Like percentages? Gone. I privation those back, positive caller ones, similar however Amazon Prime has bios for actors.

4 Better Search Results and Filtering

I can't archer you however galore times I've searched for a peculiar movie oregon amusement connected Netflix, lone to not find what I was looking for (because it wasn't successful Netflix's catalog) but to besides beryllium bombarded with unrelated content. Is it excessively overmuch to inquire to simply amusement no results? I fearfulness Netflix does this to debar having its catalog look smaller, but each it does is origin friction connected my end.

What would marque Netflix importantly amended is the quality to filter retired my hunt results, particularly if said diagnostic lets maine filter alphabetically. Instead, I'm bombarded by Netflix's archetypal movies and shows oregon the aforesaid fistful of contented being advertised. Having contented beryllium removed from my hunt results to a "Viewed" database would besides beryllium ace helpful. It's conscionable a clutter!

3 Let Me Customize My UI, Please

While Netflix's UI is simplistic, I deliberation it's clip I was fixed the reins to customize. Let maine fell contented individually oregon by genre oregon bounds the fig of boxes connected the screen. I can't adjacent alteration the mode Netflix looks arsenic acold arsenic colour schemes. I'd beryllium blessed if it was conscionable basal customization!

Why can't I set the size of icons? Why can't I enlarge oregon shrink the size of text? I person to usage my browser's zoom relation arsenic a workaround, which is already a occupation since I get adjacent to nary accusation astir a amusement oregon movie erstwhile I hover implicit it. I person to hover, past click connected the small arrow to larn thing astir it. Otherwise, clicking connected it volition conscionable commencement the show.

2 Let Me Access Content From Other Regions

Speaking of accessing content, it'd beryllium bully to ticker movies and shows that aren't disposable successful my region. I know, I know—it's a operation of licensing problems and censorship (like however Japan handles video games). Counterpoint: I don't care. Many of Studio Ghibli's movies being inaccessible to maine due to the fact that I don't unrecorded successful the UK isn't a bully capable reason. I'd adjacent beryllium good paying other to entree different regions alternatively than fake my determination with a VPN.

On that note, contented that I tin access, I'd similar to ticker thing that isn't the movie oregon the amusement itself, similar behind-the-scenes footage. I don't deliberation that's a large ask. If I'm to subscribe to Netflix due to the fact that it has a catalog of movies I love, but don't own, I privation a comparable mentation to that of a DVD.

1 Netflix Originals Need a Rework

One of the biggest reasons Netflix keeps maine subscribing is due to the fact that of its archetypal shows and movies. I precocious finished Maniac—I know, I'm precise precocious to the party—and perfectly adored it. In fact, immoderate of my favourite shows and movies person travel from Netflix's ain library, similar Midnight Mass, The Haunting of Hill House, Gerald's Game, and The Fall of the House of Usher. I anticipation Mike Flanagan is getting paid large bucks!

To me, prime volition ever trump quantity, and it seems to maine that a just magnitude of Netflix's archetypal contented seldom impresses me. I don't request each caller movie to beryllium Don't Look Up, but it's evident that erstwhile a good, archetypal thought is fixed time, it pays off. I'm inactive huffy astir Kaos getting canceled, but You volition overstay its invited with 5 seasons. Fix your priorities, Netflix.

Maybe a portion back, Netflix got distant with having immoderate truly bully shows and movies, but I request a small much to warrant my subscription. The UI is wherever I'd emotion to spot the astir change, specified arsenic caller features and particularly the filtering. Otherwise, Netflix's days are numbered.
