Netflix’s new Windows 11 update disappoints users with lack of old features


Netflix rolled out an update for Windows 11, frustrating many users.

Originally announced in May, the update was meant to replace the native app by June but faced delays and a rapid testing phase in July. The newly released version is no longer a standalone app but has become essentially web application wrapped in the Microsoft Edge-web browser, directing users to Netflix.com. In response to the backlash, Netflix provided a statement to Windows Latest, stressing that the updated app aims to deliver a “consistent, quality experience for our members across the devices they use to watch our TV shows and movies.”
