With over 180 million subscribers, Netflix is easily the largest video streaming platform in the world. Sure, much of his popularity comes from his extensive catalog of classic films, but he's certainly gained popularity through his own work as well. Here are 5 Netflix tips and tricks worth knowing if you want to jump right into the service and get the most out of your subscription.
The best plan for your ideal viewing
Netflix has three plans, making it quite different from the others. It also greatly reduces the options of what you get for your money. While other platforms may benefit from this, they are clearly losing out on the amount of content. The basic Netflix tariff will cost you 199 CZK. But for your money, you only get the option of one stream and one device to which you can download the content for offline playback. There is neither HD nor Ultra HD resolution. The first one is included in the price 259 CZK, second in price 319 CZK monthly. The Standard package increases the number of devices to two, Premium to four. What Netflix wants for CZK 319, others have as standard and for less. But here you simply pay for the quantity. There is no trial period.

Customize your account with profiles
Netflix's personalized recommendation technology, which decides which titles appear on the home page, is one of the most advanced. This way, each individual row is organized based on what you watch, what you click on, and what you search for. This kind of personalization is great if you're the only user, but it misses the mark if you share your account with friends and family. This is where profiles come in. Each account can have up to five different profiles, which helps keep everyone's preferences separate.
In other words, if you love action but your dear counterpart only watches soap operas for some reason, you can each create your own profile and receive recommendations tailored to your specific tastes. Each profile has its own settings and profile picture that can be changed. This way, every time you log into the network, you will be able to choose which profile you want to open, and switching between profiles is quite simple. If you later decide you no longer need the profile, you can easily delete it from any device.
Download content for offline viewing
Netflix is a streaming service that offers a wide selection of award-winning TV shows, movies, anime, documentaries and more, all available on thousands of internet-enabled devices – that's the nature of streaming, you have to be connected to the internet. Of course, there are situations when you simply cannot or do not want to be connected to the Internet.
The ability to download movies and shows is especially useful if you're going somewhere that doesn't have a stable internet connection and you don't want to use up your data plan. It can be a long trip, a mountain hut, a summer camp and of course any other case. The icon for downloading content to your device is a downward-pointing arrow. Where you find it, you can save such content (you don't have to download any content due to licenses).

Audio and subtitles
A lot of content is included in the platform in many audio versions, i.e. also in the Czech dubbing. But you don't always have to want to watch it in our native language. However, it is true that watching The Squidward Game or House of Paper in the original can be a bit of a pain. That is why you can easily turn on the English dubbing with Czech subtitles. When launching the selected content, just select the menu that looks like a square comic bubble with a description Audio & Subtitles or Audio and subtitles and is located in the middle of the bottom edge of the display.

Hidden Netflix codes
It is clear that you will be literally overwhelmed with content from the beginning. However, you may not find what you actually want. In the same way, individual catalogs and offers can be confusing for you. Netflix has thousands of titles, the vast majority of which you simply cannot find in any menu. Netflix codes are short strings of numbers that are assigned to each individual genre and sub-genre of a show or movie. When you type these codes into your browser's address bar, you'll be taken to a page listing all the titles in that genre.
