I used to able to use my iphone 5's Netflix app as a remote for my ps3's Netflix app, but recently the two are not connecting at all. How can I get them to connect and use the iPhone 5 as a Netflix remote?! The two are on the same wi-if network, and I'm using iphone Netflix 2.4.4, and Ps3 Netflix version 2.11
iPhone 5, iOS 6.0.1, Ps3 Netflix version 2.11
I can't see anywhere that the NetFlix app is able to be used as a remote. It's not in the description of the app on the App Store and there dont' appear to be any settings for it in the app itself. Are you sure you weren't using some other app?
Hey, thanks for the response!
I'm positive I was using the Netflix app on the iPhone and ps3, when it stopped working I tried looking it up, and ran into these website: http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/25/netflix-ios-android-ps3-second-screen-remote- control/

I read the two apps are able to connect because they are under the same wi-fi connection, but I haven't changed wireless modems, or any settings on the iPhone and ps3!
As it seems to be an undocumented feature, it's possible it was removed in one of the recent updates. It appears the app was last updated 1/3/13.
Why does the iPhone 5 not connect to the ps3 through Netflix?
