We’ve all been stuck in that decision paralysis that only Netflix can cause; staring at the different categories on the screen trying to think of what we want to watch but being unable to find movies or shows that scratch that itch. What if we told you that, with the typing of a simple code, you can bring up a selection of Netflix categories for exactly the kind of thing you’re in the mood for? There are secret Netflix codes that you can use to access curated lists of movies in a diverse range of categories.

Unlike games like Marvel Snap, these Netflix codes don’t get you any freebies – you still have to pay your monthly subscription fee. However, they bring up very specifically curated lists of films and shows in Netflix’s library to help you find what you want to watch quickly, so long as you know what kind of thing you’re in the mood for.

How to use Netflix codes

Of course, these codes are only useful if you know where to put them. There isn’t a code redemption page for Netflix, however. Instead, you’ll need to add them to the end of the URL in your browser. This means you won’t be able to use them directly in the app – you can only use these Netflix codes in a web browser.

In your browser, type netflix.com/browse/genre/ and add the code for the category above at the end.

If you’d like to quickly find a title you found in the category while using the app on your TV or other smart device, simply add it to your List and you’ll see it when you next use Netflix.

Why won’t my Netflix codes work?

There is another downside to using these codes; the movies and series in each category change depending on your region. That means that you might not see any Argentinian films in that category if none are available for you to view in your country.
