The well-needed update to your watchlist will be provided through Netflix’s secret codes.
Are you prepared to unwind on the couch after the holidays? A Netflix binge is a fantastic place to begin. Scrolling through the Netflix TV show and movie recommendations isn’t the ideal strategy if you’re sick of seeing the same list all the time. Additionally, it’s not a fantastic way to discover other specialized genres that you might enjoy.
However, a method for specifically locating the content you’re looking for is by genre-filtering the Netflix library: Netflix codes. Learn how to use Netflix codes to choose your own next binge-watch instead of just trusting the algorithm’s recommendations.

How do Netflix codes work?
The Netflix codes are based on a numbering scheme that designates a specific genre or subgenre, and the algorithm uses these codes to classify content and provide recommendations. Search Small Town Scares (81496215) for more precise results rather than browsing through Horror.
Currently, Netflix has 36,000 codes. Please note that regulations cannot be used in Netflix’s mobile apps, only on the website.
Where is Netflix’s hidden menu located?
Visit Netflix-codes.com to view the whole list. There are roughly 20 categories, including those for anime, international films, and vintage films. Subgenres within those categories are more narrowly defined. For instance, code 8711 for horror films also contains 12 more codes, such as those for deep-sea horror films, zombie horror films, teen cries, and more.
