(Pocket-lint) – Netflix is introducing a new way to tell the streaming service what you’ve really enjoyed, helping it better manage your homepage with more relevant recommendations.
The service announced the creation of a “Two Thumbs Up” button that will be added to the “Thumbs Up” and “Thumbs Down” buttons that Netflix already offers to its subscribers to allow them to indicate if they like something or not.
What does the “Two Thumbs Up” button on Netflix mean?
Le bouton “Deux pouces en haut” va plus loin que les boutons “Pouces en haut” et “Pouces en bas” existants sur Netflix, puisqu’il permet aux abonnés de signaler au service de streaming qu’ils ont vraiment apprécié un film ou emission.
According to the company, this is a much needed feature. Keep in mind that Netflix used to have a five-star rating system that guides how it suggests recommendations to subscribers, but it replaced that system in 2017 with its current up/down system. (Pro tip: If you find that Netflix never suggests anything you really like, you can check and edit your ratings.here).
What does the “Two Thumbs Up” button on Netflix do?
The Two Thumbs Up button on Netflix is located next to the thumbs up and thumbs down buttons. Click this button when you want to watch similar movies and shows or with the same actors. So, for example, if you like Bridgerton, you can watch other shows or films with the same actors.
“Think of Double Thumbs Up as a way to narrow down your recommendations for watching more shows or movies influenced by what you love,” Netflix explained in a blog post. “A Thumbs Up always lets us know what you liked, so we use that response to make similar recommendations. But Double Thumbs Up tells us what you liked and helps us to be more specific with your recommendations.”
When will ‘Two Thumbs Up’ be available on Netflix?
The Netflix Two Thumbs Up button will be available on the Netflix web, TV, Android, and iOS interfaces from April 11, 2022.
