  • Netflix won’t be part of Apple TV after all

    Netflix won’t be part of Apple TV after all

    Recently, some Netflix viewers in the U.S. noticed something unusual. They saw Netflix shows and movies appearing in the “Continue Watching” list on the Apple TV app. This led to rumors that Netflix might finally be working with Apple TV.

    However, it turned out to be just a mistake. Netflix confirmed to a news site that the appearance of their content in the Apple TV app was not intentional. They quickly fixed the error, pulling their shows and movies back from the Apple TV’s queue.

    Netflix has long chosen to keep its service separate from the Apple TV app. This means if you’re using an Apple TV, you won’t find your Netflix watch list mixed in with other services like Apple TV+, Hulu, Disney+, Max, or Amazon Prime Video. Instead, Netflix wants its users to use its own app to keep track of what they’re watching and find new things to watch.

    This approach by Netflix means that fans of the service have to switch between apps if they want to manage their viewing across different platforms on Apple devices. While other streaming services have embraced integration with Apple’s system for a smoother experience, Netflix continues to stand alone. This decision might be based on keeping control over their user experience or other strategic business reasons not fully public.

    So, if you were excited about potentially seeing all your streaming in one place with Apple TV, you’ll have to wait a bit longer or manage your Netflix watching separately.

    Netflix makes watching easier with one simple button on iPhone and iPad

    Good news for everyone using iPhones and iPads, Netflix has just made your streaming life a whole lot easier with the addition of a new button.

    Now, with just one tap, you can download an entire season of your favorite show. It’s something that Android users have enjoyed for a while, and now, iPhone and iPad users can enjoy this convenience too. This is a big step up for all of us.

    Here’s how it works: when you’re looking at a show’s page, you’ll see this new button right next to where you share the show. Just tap it, and all episodes from that season will begin downloading without you having to do anything more. No more downloading each episode one by one! If you want to check what’s downloading or manage which episodes you have, just go to the Downloads area in the My Netflix section.

    This update comes after Netflix raised its prices a bit, but it seems like they’re giving back with this handy new feature. Make sure to update your Netflix app from the App Store to enjoy this new way of watching. Happy streaming!
