6 Hacks To Make Watching Netflix Even Better

Date:

Nearly everyone has Netflix nowadays. But, sometimes the worst part of having thousands of TV shows and movies at your disposal is trying to figure out what to watch?

Well, here are 10 tips to make watching Netflix even better.

1. Use an add-on like NEnhancer to easily browse through movies.

Google chrome offers free apps to make the Netflix menu a little more helpful, including ones that put trailers right on the information panel. So, you don’t have to guess if you like the movie or not.

2. You can use your smartphone as a remote

Are you tired of losing your remote. Well, if you’re watching Netflix on Roku or Xbox One, you can download an app that will let you change the channel.

3. Watch Netflix in HD by changing the settings.

Netflix changes your playback settings to “Auto,” meaning the service will determine your streaming quality based on connection.

You will have to go to the Account menu, then Playback Settings and set your data usage to HIGH in order to force HD playback.

However, this will use a ton of data (up to 7 GB per hour for Ultra HD).

4. Watch Netflix during the day for better streaming quality.

If you’re watching Netflix during peak hours, the increased traffic will mean worse picture quality for you. To watch in the highest streaming quality, plan to bingewatch during the weekday afternoons.

5. Can’t figure out what to watch?

6. Want to watch Netflix without spending money on data? Well you may want to consider using T-Mobile.
