There is always room for making things more exciting, even when you are having a great time with Netflix. If at anytime a point comes when you think, what the hell am I missing while binge-watching my favorite TV show or movie on Netflix, then we’ve got the fix for you.

Take look at 17 amazing Netflix hacks for enhancing your streaming experience.

So, are you enjoying your binge’s watching time to the maximum? You sure? The answer is no! There are lots of simple tricks that can make your streaming not great but amazing.

Let’s get started!

1. Never Miss Your Favorite TV Shows & Movies with Audiobook Feature

Have you ever heard of audiobook feature on Netflix? This feature is useful when you are multitasking and don’t want to miss your favorite TV shows and movies.

So when you are busy cleaning your room or on a phone call, you can activate this feature by following these steps:

It will activate a narrator feature that will explain all the activities are happening on screen. Seems a bit disturbing but it’s not. It will make you work on different things without missing your favorite TV shows or movies.

However, not all the TV shows and movies provide this option, but there is a huge list of the ones that do.

2. Watch Your Favorite TV Shows & Movies with Binge Partner – Rabbit

If your Binge partner is not with you over the weekend to complete a marathon of Narcos season, then you should check out Rabbit. You can watch TV shows and movies with your binge-watching partner from long distance with the help of Rabbit. It is one of the best alternatives to Skype and FaceTime.

Rabbit offers a feature to set up a screen that can be seen by all individuals who are part of the group chat. Through this feature, you can watch different content with your binge partners no matter where they are in the world.

3. Modify Subtitles

If you are addicted to shows in Spanish, French or any other language, then you are heavily dependent on subtitles. But sometimes these subtitles ruin your binge-watching experience due to their inaccuracy, making you struggle to understand more than enjoying.

There is an option available from where you can modify subtitles according to your need and level of understanding. How to modify subtitles, just follow these steps, as illustrated by Netflix:

Netflix Account > Profile > Subtitle Appearance. Now modify the subtitles based on your need.

4. Always Watch Netflix in HD or Ultra HD

This is normal; most Netflix subscribers don’t bother to check whether their plan offers HD or Ultra HD streaming option, and start bingeing in low quality.

We suggest you always to check if there is an option of HD or Ultra HD by going to Netflix.com/HDToggle. In case your package offers this feature, then setup HD and Ultra HD quality to take your bingeing experience to cinema quality.

5. Watch Shows & Movies without “Are You Still Watching?” Message

Although, if you watch TV shows and movies outside the Wi-Fi zone on your smartphone, then HD or Ultra HD quality can eat your data exponentially (use up to 3.5 to 7.5 GB per hour). So if you are watching on your smartphone with the limited data package, set up on “low” quality.

When you reach mid of 8 to 10 hours of binge-watching the marathon, and suddenly a message appears, “Are you still watching?”- it is very irritating!

6. Kick-Out Other Users from Using Your Netflix Account

The good news is that you can fix this by using Flix Assist extension. This extension not only removes these kinds of pop-ups while binge-watching but also remove other annoying features such as countdown to upcoming episode or movie.

Sharing Netflix accounts is a common practice, but when your friends recommended shows start to pop-up, it becomes disturbing at times.

To resolve this issue and reclaim control of your Netflix account, simply sign-out from all devices. This way, you can kick out other users from your Netflix account.

Netflix Account > Sign out of all devices

7. Banish Buffering from Ruining Streaming

Your movie is almost at its climax, but suddenly it stops and starts buffering. This kind of issue constantly hinders your streaming experience.

But there is one amazing hack that helps you to prevent this problem. To fix buffering issues, follow these steps

PC / Mac / Laptop

While streaming on Netflix, press and hold Ctrl + Shift + Opt/Alt + S > this will open hidden buffering options and other buffering features.

Wii / Xbox One / PS4

By using directional keys/arrow keys, press the following:

Apple TV / Other Streaming Devices

Go to “Playback Setting” option of your account page > Select “Low” or “Auto”. This will set your streaming according to your internet speed and will fix the Netflix issue automatically.

Although, there is a possibility that you fail to find this secret menu due to the difference in software version and device model. In this case, set up your Netflix settings according to your internet speed.
