Netflix makes their interface even worse
14 Replies
So I went on the Netflix website a couple of days ago and I notice that the suggestions tab was gone. In its place was a Taste Profile tab which is utterly useless in comparison. All it does is bring…Continue

"It's the format and process that keep changing."
Stuie299 replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"I'm not talking about the recommendations themselves. I'm talking about how you access the recommendations. Sure I can look on a movie's page and see what it's suggested rating is for me, but they've made it so I now have to…"
wowwee123 replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"I'm 99% of the time using the android app, and it is working very well. The recommendations via the app are pretty much on the mark."
"What you say is absolutely true. The tabs have changed and the new tab, "Taste Profile" is useless to me. It looks slick and if you "X" a title, it is replaced in about one second with another title, so it's flashy…"
Stuie299 replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"The point wasn't that the suggestions were gone, the point was that the interface had completely changed. Before I can access the suggestions I have to click on your queue."
Stuie299 replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"Well I can come up with movies to watch without the help of Netflix. I was just saying that in regards to the Taste Profile. Its a useless feature in comparison to the Suggestions."
wowwee123 replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"Sorry, Ratings and Recommendations Unavailable
We apologize for any inconvenience. If you've previously rated movies and TV shows or set taste preferences, don't worry —we've saved those for you.
We'll keep checking to see…"
Pihk replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"Seriously I'm at the point now where I've rated all of the movies I've seen. The only way I can rate more is by watching more.

Snorii replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"I honestly never really got much out of the suggestions. I've rated 3,294 movies on netflix and they have zero suggestions for me. All they say is to rate more movies.

Stuie299 replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"I fluctuated between 1,500 - 2,000 suggestions. I have rated over 1,000 movies and tv shows. I really don't think that should affect weather I have a suggestions tab. I also only have 110 movies in my DVD queue and 46 movies in my instant…"
Knaldskalle replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"I had that too, but it has since reverted to "* Suggestions for you". I have no idea what they're doing, but it seemed clumsy."
Spindaddydad replied to Stuie299's discussion 'Netflix makes their interface even worse'"It's visible on my Netflix home page. Not sure, but could it be that the suggestions tab comes and goes based on your number of available suggestions?"
Stuie299 replied to ToriRoi's discussion 'Search Options'"Thanks for the suggestion. I just signed up and look forward to using it."
Stuie299 replied to Netflowers's discussion 'HBO TO NETFLIX: YOU WILL NEVER GET OUR SHOWS.'"I don't get it. If they're going to let Direct TV offer HBO and other premium channels for free then why not license your content to Netflix."
Stuie299 replied to ToriRoi's discussion 'Search Options'"I think more importantly you should be able to search/sort your suggestions by your predicted ratings. So far you can only do this within a single genre. I know third party websites like Feedflix give you a top 100 list based on your predicted…"

Baff replied to brian h. arnett's discussion 'mailing blu ray vs standard'"Interesting, I've never gotten a dvd when I was expecting a blu-ray. Maybe better quality control at my local distribution center.
