You know, you’re in the mood for a great movie, but you don’t know which one, and the thought of scrolling endlessly through the menu gives you shingles. Instead of clicking all the time, try these hidden codes that will quickly filter your Netflix content by genre or preference.
Codes work both on TV and on a computer or mobile phone.
The king of searching with secret codes
There are just over 4,000 unique codes on Netflix, with the help of which you can get to categories that would be difficult to reach with a normal search. Don’t think of codes as some secret way to get to otherwise impermissible content, but as an option filter your search based on preferences.
And how to do that? Simply log into your Netflix account and type the code you want to use into the search box. If you don’t have a clear idea, just enter the code of the main genre (for example, Action or Thrillers) and get inspired from the filtered section. In case of more specific requirements, you can try other codes that should filter the search a little more precisely.
Attention! Although it is possible to search fairly well across different genres and categories through these codes, they are not 100% accurate, and a film that has nothing to do with the subject may wander into the list. In addition, thanks to the geological limitation, we can enjoy a lot of pictures without using a VPN.
