Hidden Netflix codes - AndroidAyuda

Nowadays we have streaming platforms to watch movies and series of all kinds and of all colors. In this article we are going to focus on the Netflix platform, which offers us a very wide catalog of varied content.

If we have been using Netflix for a long time, movies and series related to our tastes or the last viewings will easily appear. In addition to the recommendations, the trends of each country appear in which we see it, and what is most in vogue at that moment.

But what happens when we want to see some multimedia content that has little relation to what we have already seen, or we want to look for something concrete of a different genre? Well, today we are going to see how to facilitate these searches and find what we want to see.

Access to hidden categories

Netflix gives us the option to look for what we like by different categories, in addition to having the option of “Movies” or “Series”. But this option is very general, since with such a wide catalog the results are very wide and diverse.

But as we have been announcing there are ways to search for content of a specific type more easily. And it is that with the secret codes that are those with which Netflix classifies its content in many more categories than it shows us, the task is made easier.

Each code refers to a cinematographic or thematic category, and we can find titles framed in "action and adventure", "drama", "anime", "family movies" and much more. They can even become very specific, thus making the search much easier.

Just remember that the codes that we will show below may vary depending on the country from which we are using Netflix. If we are using a PC, mobile phone or a tablet, we must modify the URL that appears in the navigation bar. To do this we must write:

https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/CODE replacing "CODE" with the one we have chosen from those set out here.
