Going to Netflix or any streaming platform to watch something new is not as simple as it sounds. If you are someone like me, chances are you go to Netflix, see the hundreds of movies and TV shows, and blatantly keep scrolling through the library without starting anything. So, citing this indecisive nature of users, Netflix has finally started rolling out its much-awaited “Play Something” button for users.
The “Play Something” button, as the name suggests, will play something from Netflix’s library based on users’ watch history. So, if you find yourself scrolling through the Netflix library on your TV the next time, you can simply click the new button to let the platform decide your next movie or TV series.
The new “Play Something” button resides in multiple locations inside the Netflix TV app. You can find it underneath your profile name, the tenth row on the Netflix homepage, or the navigation menu bar at the left of the screen (shown above). If you want to search for a movie or TV show on all streaming services, including Netflix, Prime Video, and others, then you can rely on this tool right here.
