The interface is slow (though I think the actual design is decently usable but nothing great).
Which categories you get are random, yes you can search for specific tags but that's a bit of a hassle and involves typing on a remote. What I'd really like would be both custom and sticky categories. Categories that will always be shown to me (simply by liking a category), and sticky custom categories by combining tags (like creating a action comedy category by combining the action and comedy tags and having that category always show up on my feed).
Netflix lacks personalization IMHO, because algorithms will never replace my actual taste. Let me tell you what I want you to show me.
Also, they should make a drill down search (minimize typing, please!). What I mean is a simply search menu with 5-10 major category types (genre, actor, director, tags) then being able to continue filtering by different categories on the fly.
Also, add a completely optional where I can see what my friends liked (with their permission ofc). That way I can, hassle free, get recommendations from people I trust.
You can even make public feeds! Famous movie critic public feed, etc.
So many possibilities to improve Netflix, I wouldn't even know where to start.
- js2 8y agoStart by turning off the god damn trailer auto play. Just give me an option under settings. Please. I just want to browse in peace and quiet.
- wool_gather 8y agoI agree this should not be turned on by default, but FYI if you mute it, that's sticky as long as you're not clearing cookies.
- js2 8y agoI’m referring to the AppleTV Netflix app specifically.
