Netflix has thousands of titles for you to watch, but now and then, you might be in a situation saying, “There’s nothing good to watch.” Netflix predicts and recommends you new shows and movies based on your viewing history and it does a good job in accurately recommending you new shows. If you think it’s not working for you, you can directly go to a specific category using Netflix codes. Using this trick you can access hidden TV shows, genres and films which would otherwise be hard to access by simply browsing Netflix.
How to use Netflix secret codes
It’s pretty straight-forward to access your favourite categories once you have the Netflix secret codes list, you just need to change the category code at the end of the URL with your category code which is a number.
The final URL will be http://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/YOUR-CATEGORY-CODE
For example, you like to browse Action & Adventure category for which the netflix category code is 1365. So your URL will be http://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/1365
Note that some categories are restricted in some countries, so you might not be able to access some categories even if you have the secret code of that category.
