As many of you would know, Netflix has heaps of great content, but you may not realise that, with these secret codes from What’s on Netflix, you can access so much more.
Netflix uses a clever algorithm that suggests to you what it thinks you want to watch. These hidden codes bypass these suggestions to help you find even more content.
Some people watch Netflix on their computer, and to use these codes, you will need access to your computer. If you watch Netflix via a Smart TV, Apple TV or other media player, you will not be able to enter the codes using these mediums. However, you can find the movies you’re looking for on your computer then search on your preferred media player using the movie title.
First, you’ll need to log in to your Netflix account, then pop this URL into your browser:
