“The biggest update in a decade” is coming to Netflix. Users can check out the new interface first — however, reviews of the changes aren’t overwhelmingly positive.
Netflix is another company that is making a big change to the user interface of its platform. The company is preparing for a major update. As is often the case, new products are implemented gradually, making them available to subsequent subscribers – to check the first opinions and make sure that the user interface will work correctly on all devices.
However, streaming platform owners will have to think seriously about the planned revolution, as there is already no shortage of unfavorable voices. BroBible senior editor Eric Italiano got access to the news and confirmed that Netflix has by far the best user interface in the industry, and that the new system is similar to Hulu and “Cannot move”. The company has ditched the popular “infinite scroll.”
A large portion of the Netflix community who have had access to the changes being implemented say so directly: “Dislikes” News, they are just that. “ugly.” Now the boxes with selected products take up almost the entire screen – In the current version we see about 10 icons for movies or series at the same time, while in the new version of the platform this number has been reduced to 2-3.
This is ridiculous. Who would want that?? I have no idea how this got the green light – there are so many comments like this.
There are even opinions that people use Netflix on their phones because the app still looks like the old UI, and they only play it on the TV when they find a promising viewing option.
I hate this new style too. I actually use the app on my phone because it reminds me more of the old style of browsing around Netflix and finding what I’m looking for and wanting to watch. Then I pick what I want to watch and play it for a few minutes. I go back to the TV and find that I’m still watching it. I absolutely hate their new home screen.
