You may think that you have already exhausted all the content to watch on Netflix. However, it is quite likely that there are a large number of movies and series that you have not even been able to search for within the extensive library of the streaming platform. It turns out that there are some secret codes that make it easy to find new content to watch within Netflix.
Delving into the extensive Netflix catalog is often a challenge, since we can spend more time looking for what we want to see than pressing play. However, if we are undecided, since 2021, Netflix has the option to “play something” automatically without us having to choose. A function that allows us to discover hidden Netflix categories, movies or series that we did not know were available or content related to our tastes that we have not yet seen.
How to Access Hidden Netflix Content
The main categories of the platform are visible from the main page when we access our account. Not all users know that there are many others that are hidden and not accessible. Hence they are known as hidden categories.
In order to access the hidden categories of Netflix, you have to replace the code of the category you want to access. When we enter a visible category , the URL we find is something similar to: www.netflix.com/es/browse/genre/categorycode. At the end of the URL is where we will have to change the code to access the hidden category that we want. For example, if we want to access the classic comedies category , it is as simple as going to our browser and typing the URL https://www.netflix.com/es/browse/genre/31694 . In this case the secret code for the category is 31694 .
