Netflix is launching a redesigned TV experience starting May 19, aiming to help users find what to watch faster — and with fewer headaches.
What’s new
- Smarter recommendations: The homepage now updates in real-time based on what you watch and engage with, surfacing new rows that match your mood — like romantic comedies after watching Set It Up.
- Streamlined navigation: New top-of-screen shortcuts to Search, Shows, Movies, Games, and My Netflix make it easier to get where you want without scrolling.
- Your “My Netflix” hub: This personal space keeps track of what you’re watching, what’s on your list, and what you’ve asked to be reminded about — all in one place.
- More info, faster: Get the rundown on a title — synopsis, runtime, awards, Top 10 status, cast — before hitting play.
When to expect it
- The rollout starts May 19 and will expand globally over the next few weeks.
- Most smart TVs and streaming devices will get the update, with more supported over time.
- A welcome screen will let you know when it’s live on your device.
Why it matters
Netflix is tackling decision fatigue by making discovery quicker and more personal. As competition heats up in the streaming world, a better user experience could mean more time spent watching — and less time scrolling.
