netflix just greatly improve your ‘My List’ feature, on Android phones and iPhones, adding options to filter and sort the elements. In practice, it finally allows us to distinguish what we have seen from what we want to see.
Netflix lets us save the content that interests us in ‘My list’, but over time becomes a mixed bag where it is impossible to find anything, because it includes both series and movies that we want to see as well as those that we have already started and even those that we have finished. Finally we have an improvement.
‘My list’ is more list
Netflix sometimes plays a little distracting by trying to redirect you so that you can see anything and not necessarily what you had in mind. An example of this is the frustrating search suggestions for titles that are not on the platform or the mess ‘My List’ has becomesomething like the favorites list of the platform.
The problem with ‘My List’ is that what you add there doesn’t disappear after you see it nor is what is seen distinguished from what is pending no way. Now we can distinguish the wheat from the chaff with the new filters that have been added, first, to the Netflix mobile application.
These new filters are already available on Netflix for Android and will come to the iOS version “in the coming weeks.” To take advantage of them, we must touch the arrow to the right of My list, on the Netflix home page. The filters are located at the top and are the following: still not started, started, series and movies. You can combine the first two filters with the last two (ie unstarted movies, series you already started, etc).
As if this were not enough, we can touch the drop-down menu to change the order in which the items are displayed. The available options are the order by suggested titles, date of entry in the list, alphabetical and by date of release. In other words, it will be very easy for us to check what we have pending on Netflix using the “not yet started” filter and ordering it by the date it was added to the list.
