SEARCH - Netflix programs a “no show” in AppleTV/Siri search

Apple should force streaming providers to intgrate. 😉

Netflix has not wanted this deep integration, and not programmed their app to be connected to the Apple TV app. Only Netflix Originals can be found through search outside of the Netflix app.

About Search on your Apple TV - Apple Support

Agreed! I mean maybe I don't fully understand the streaming business. But you would think that Netflix would want you to find shows on their service and watch it versus watching it on a competitor's service. Especially if you don't already subscribe to Netflix. I'd also think they would want those streaming numbers since they are pushing their cheaper ads included option.

If anything I would think Apple would be the one who didn't want it to show up. My mother just paid $30 for the first season of Gilmore Girl's because when she searched it the only option that showed up was to purchase it thru iTunes. Told her don't waste the money on the rest, you just have to go to the Netflix app and search.

Is Netflix now in Search and Apple TV app? I see Stranger Things and Kimmy Schmidt there now.

Possibly Netflix realized they were only hurting themselves with their policy and has allowed Apple access.

I don’t know since I don’t use Netflix.

Netflix Originals are the exception (always has been).
