How to Use Netflix Category Codes to Find your Favorite Genre

Netflix is a great source of entertainment for all shapes, sizes, and genres. If you have a Netflix account then you know the vast array of content that it holds and also how it is categorized into the genres. And the latter is something that people have been having perennial problems with. The categorization is rather clumsy and straightforward. For example, the category ‘comedy’ holds everything from action comedy to comedy dramas, to romantic comedies. However, users nowadays want their content specified into much better categories.

And this is possible for Netflix users as well. Netflix actually has a set of codes which can be used to discover much better categorization of all of their content. These categories are really well crafted and include the likes of ‘Asian action movies’, ‘crime action and adventure’, ‘spy action and adventure’, etc. Not a lot of people know about these codes, however, they can be found quite easily online. So, here are the steps as to how you can use these codes to access said categories in Netflix.

Step 1
Search Codes Online
Search online using the keywords ‘Netflix hidden codes’ and browse the results to find the codes that you want to use.

Step 2
Login to Netflix
Log onto your 'Netflix' account with your 'User ID' and 'Password'.

Step 3
Enter 'URL'
Once logged in, on the 'Address bar' of the browser type the following address: “www.netflix.com/browser/genere/1234” but instead of the ‘1234’ type in the code of your choice, and hit 'Enter'.

Once you do this the hidden category you entered the code of will be made active and you will be taken to the search results page of that particular category. Keep in mind that this feature only works if you are using Netflix from your PC and not via the app on handheld devices.
