Netflix Updates Web Experience with New Interface

The streaming service has revamped its website. 

Netflix has launched a new version of its online interface. The updated website now offers improved discovery with more images and faster navigation.

Taking its inspiration from mobile devices, the website is now designed to work more like an app with info appearing in-line rather than on separate pages. Likewise, hovering over a title now prompts a slideshow of images while clicking will bring up more details and episode selections. Scrolling through rows has also been improved and the site has been optimized to work with a mouse, trackpad, or touch screen.

The upgraded Netflix website is rolling out globally now and will be available for all members in about two weeks. A monthly Netflix subscription currently starts at $7.99 for SD streaming, $8.99 for HD streaming, and $11.99 for Ultra HD streaming. The service is available on a variety of smart TVs and media players, including the Fire TV, Fire TV Stick, Roku 3, Apple TV and Chromecast.
