Netflix is adding a new feature that will rank the 10 most popular programs on its service in your country Netflix announced.
The new top 10 row will be updated daily and reveal what is popular in your country. The row’s position will vary depending on “how relevant the shows and films are to you,” we’re told.
The Top 10 list will appear on your Netflix homescreen, but the list’s actual position will vary based on how relevant the shows and films are to you. For example, if you only watched documentaries and horror, a top 10 list filled with teen rom-com’s and comedies may not appear as high on the screen for you as it would for others.
In addition to an overall top 10 list, subscribers will also have access to individual lists for TV shows and movies when clicking on the respective tabs.
Cameron Johnson, director of product innovation for Netflix, said shows and films that make these lists will receive a special “Top 10” badge, making it even easier to see what is in the zeitgeist, regardless of whether you are browsing by category or through your personal list.
The lists should also help users find something to watch without wasting so much time combing through Netflix’s seemingly endless sea of content.
The streaming video giant tested the feature in Mexico and the UK for more than six months and said subscribers in both countries found the lists useful.
