It’s a classic: you enter Netflix, and you end up spending more time deciding what to watch than actually watching something. This issue becomes even more significant when we’re with friends or family, and we need to reach an agreement among several people (I have even spent 2 hours of my life deciding which movie to watch, without exaggeration).
Netflix is fully aware of this issue and has announced a feature that will greatly simplify these types of decisions. The new feature is called “My Netflix,” and it is a new tab that we can find in the bottom right corner of the Netflix mobile app.
In this new tab, all the movies, series, documentaries, or programs in which we have shown some interest will appear, saving us a lot of time when deciding what to watch. In “My Netflix,” we will find titles we have downloaded, those we have saved to “My List,” ones we have recently watched, those we haven’t finished, ones we have liked, trailers we have seen, and much more.
However, Netflix warns us that the more we interact with the platform, the more content we will see in the new feature: “Keep in mind that the more you interact with Netflix and let it know what you like, such as saving more action thrillers like Extraction 2 to ‘My List’ or giving a thumbs up to each season of Bridgerton, the more you’ll see in the ‘My Netflix’ tab.
“My Netflix” is now available to all iOS users and will be available to Android users starting in August. As of now, Netflix has not confirmed if the feature will also be introduced to the web version and television apps.
