It’s good but lets make it great!
Because we can...



Netflix is entertaining the world with a wide selection of movies and tv shows. I wanted to have a look at the app itself and see what I can do make this an even better experience for everyone!
Current Screens (AKA the boring screens)
Background gradient is dull
No clear indication how to access watchlist
No additional information provided on advertised movie.
Seems a little cluttered
Autoplay preview is annoying
Some information seems useless to state
Would prefer larger icons for episodes
Would like a footer tab still available for easy use
No way to look at recent searches
Misuse of play icon as it leads to the previous screen instead of playing.
Would like more options than just top searches.
Would like a footer tab still available for easy navigation
Not a clear header
Hard to see “Edit” button
