Netflix is a streaming video platform that offers a very extensive catalog. But on its home page, Netflix limits its recommendations to current trends, the latest releases or to choices based on the profile of the user. To access the entire catalog and find nuggets to see or review, there are several tips to know. Here are the Netflix secret codes or Netflix hidden codes
Search the Netflix app
The application includes a search engine, accessible by clicking on the magnifying glass at the bottom of the screen. The search can be carried out according to a keyword: part of the title of a film or documentary, the name of an actor or a director … It is also possible to search only available films in certain languages, or according to a specific style (science fiction, comedy, action, etc.)
1. Click on the magnifying glass,
2. Enter the name or the keyword,
3. Click on Enter or OK.
Under the search box, Netflix integrates recommendations based on the most popular searches.
The film or documentary sheet is displayed by clicking on the image.
Use the secret codes of the categories on the Netflix site
On its website and provided you are connected, Netflix offers a simple search engine. But there is a trick to find the different films and documentaries classified by category.
Type the URL: www.netflix.com/browse/genre
Just add a code like 12345 to this URL to access a specific category. For example, the code 10118 corresponds to comic book and superhero movies. You must enter the URL www.netflix.com/browse/genre/10118 to access it directly.
