Netflix is one of the most popular known platforms for streaming shows and movies. From regional content to international hits to original movies and shows and even kid’s shows, Netflix has something for everybody. But finding the right content — TV series, movies, documentaries as per your liking can be quite a challenge. Thankfully, there’s a simple way by which you can train Netflix to recommend movies and shows as per your likes. Here’s a detailed guide for you that will help you make the most of Netflix.
- Start with what you like :
Netflix’s algorithm gets as you continue to watch content that you enjoy the most. Along these lines, in the event that you like thrillers the most, you should continue to observe all the more such shows and films to assist Netflix with understanding your preferences better. Also, right after you create your profile, you can select three or more films and/or series that interest you the most.
- Thumbs up or thumbs down a film or a series
You can also let Netflix the sort of shows and films that you like by giving a thumbs up or thumbs down to the movies and shows that Netflix recommends. Each time you give a film or series a thumbs up, Netflix is likely to recommend similar stories. Similarly, when you give a thumbs down, you clearly signal that this wasn’t your favorite, so Netflix is less likely to recommend you something similar in the future. Here’s how you can do it:
- On Netflix via browser: Place the cursor on the title you need to rate and choose the ‘thumbs up/thumbs down icon.
— On mobile: For Android, select the title you want to rate > select ‘Details & More’ > then tap on the ‘rate’ option to select the ‘thumbs up/thumbs down icon. For iOS, select the title you want to rate > tap on the ‘rate’ option > select the ‘thumbs up/thumbs down icon.
— On TV: Choose the title you want to rate and then select the ‘thumbs up/thumbs down option.
- Add movies and series to ‘My List’
You can also let Netflix what you like by adding the content that you do jump at the chance to ‘My List’ on your profile. When you add titles to your list, Netflix learns your preferences better and recommends more such series and films. Here’s a guide for you:
— On Netflix via browser: Place the cursor on the title you want to add and select the ‘plus’ icon.
- On mobile: For Android – select the title you need to add, select ‘Subtleties and More’ and afterward tap on the ‘in addition to’ icon; for iOS – select the title you need to add and tap on the ‘in addition to’ icon.
- On TV: Select the title you need to add and then select the ‘Add to My List’ option.
- Make different profiles
Something else that you can do to get customized suggestions is making your very own profile, particularly on the subscription with a friend or a family member. You can also set a 4-digit PIN on your profile to make absolutely sure no one else is watching from it.
