How to use Netflix on your Android phone or tablet
Learn how to set up and sign out of your Netflix account on your Android device.
Set Up Netflix
You can get the Netflix app from the Google Play Store on phones and tablets with Android OS version 5 (Lollipop) or later. To get the latest version, your device must have Android OS version 7 (Nougat) or later.
To get the Netflix app:
-
Open the Play Store app, then search for "Netflix".
-
In the list, find and tap the Netflix app.
-
Tap Install.
-
Exit the Play Store app,
-
Go to your device's home screen or apps list, then tap the Netflix app.
-
Enter your email and password, then tap Sign In. If you aren't a Netflix member, learn how to sign up.
If you can't find the Netflix app in the Google Play Store and your device has Android OS 5 or later, follow the steps in Can't find the Netflix app.
Netflix Features
Netflix streaming features on supported devices include:
Navigation
Search for titles by tapping the magnifying glass in the upper right corner of the app. You can also scroll through rows of recommended genres on the home screen, or browse all genres from
the menu in the upper left corner. To fast forward or rewind, tap anywhere on the screen, then slide your finger either forward or backward along the progress bar. Press the back button to exit the movie.
Subtitles & alternate audio
During playback, tap the Subtitles and Alternate Audio icon at the top of the screen to configure subtitles and alternate language audio.
Picture in Picture (Android 8 or later)
Some Android phones and tablets allow you to watch Netflix while using other apps. Not all Android devices and operating systems are compatible. For detailed
instructions and support on using Picture in Picture, contact your device manufacturer.
Downloads
Download select titles to watch when you can't be online. See our article about downloads to learn more.
Because a wide variety of devices with different capabilities use the Android operating system, certain Android devices are not compatible with the download feature. If you're using the latest version of the Netflix app and are not able to download Netflix content, you will need to use a different device to use this feature.

Use the options below to check if your Android model can play Netflix in HD (High Definition) video quality.

If your Android phone or tablet is listed above or uses an HD-compatible chipset but doesn't play in HD, follow these steps.
Check your device's playback information
To play Netflix in HD video quality, Android phones and tablets must use Widevine L1. Widevine allows your Android device to play videos and other content with DRM (digital rights management) protections.
To check your device:
-
Open the Netflix app.
-
In the lower right, tap My Netflix.
-
In the upper right, tap More.
-
Tap App Settings.
-
Scroll down to Diagnostics, then tap Playback Specification.
-
Next to Widevine, look for L1 or L3.
-
If you see L3, it means your device can only play Netflix in SD video quality. If you believe your device should have Widevine L1, contact the company that made it for help.
-
If you see L1 and Netflix doesn't play in HD, there might be an issue with your device. Contact us for help.
